Shocked? So, was I when I stumbled across this little gem of a piece of speculation?
According to Football League World, the Hatters are one of several teams, supposedly, eyeing up a move for the Tottenham Hotspur winger Jack Clarke, with other possible destinations being Derby County, Millwall and Barnsley.
Back in the summer of 2019, Tottenham signed Clarke, from Leeds United, for a fee of £10 million.
The north London viewed the winger as one for the future but since moving to North London, Clarke has made just a handful of appearances with these being in minor competitions.
Since being on the books of Tottenham, Clarke has spent periods on loan with the likes of Queens Park Rangers and Stoke City, but without showing the skills expected of a £10 million player.
Our quoted source suggests that a move could be on the cards come the opening of the January transfer window, but would Luton be seriously interested?
Firstly, I believe that the transfer fee could be off-putting, I can’t see Tottenham letting him go for the price limit our club would be able to go to and, secondly, after failing to make a dramatic impact on loan with two Championship clubs, would he provide anything better than we already have?
