Tottenham Hotspur sign first player in 18 months

Premier League giants, Tottenham Hotspur, have announced 18-year-old winger Jack Clarke as their latest signing.

The transfer deal, which was made known on Tuesday via Tottenham's verified Twitter handle, is the first signing of the club in the past 18 months.

Their most recent signing before Clarke was the Brazilian right-winger Lucas Moura, who arrived from French side Paris Saint Germain in January, 2018.

The club tweeted: "We are delighted to announce the signing of Jack Clarke from Leeds United.

"He has agreed a contract with the Club until 2023 and will return to the Championship side on loan for the 2019/20 season.

"Welcome Jack!"

Clarke had played for EFL Championship side Leeds United in the 2018-19 season, scoring two goals and making two assists from 22 Championship appearances as his team qualified for the playoffs.

His performances had also attracted quite a few Premier League teams this summer, but Tottenham were the first to approach him with an offer.
