Tottenham Hotspur have turned down all offers from Championship sides for Jack Clarke, who has impressed Jose Mourinho in training, Football London report.
Clarke struggled on two loan spells at Leeds United and QPR last term, where he was starved of first-team football.
But he has returned to Spurs this season and has caught the eye in senior training.


Mourinho is now said to believe that keeping him at Tottenham could be the best move for his development.
Spurs don’t want to send Clarke out on loan only to see him sit on the bench, and it is claimed they would rather keep him around, where he can learn from the likes of Gareth Bale.

While it is still not ruled out that Clarke will make a switch if the ‘perfect’ club comes in for him, the latest update does say that the 19-year-old is likely to stay with Tottenham, at least until January.

Clarke is unlikely to be afforded much game time at Spurs, due to the quality of their attack.
But if he can build up his confidence again, then keeping him around may still be a good move for Tottenham, as the youngster seeks to find his best form again.
 
Will he get any game time though with Son, Bale, Lucas, Bergwijn, Lamela, Dele all competing for 2 spots in the starting team?

I strongly doubt it, but just being around our front 3/4 will have made an impression - let's hope it's the right one and Jose will by now have a development plan with the coaches. For now, minutes can wait, but I'd be delighted to see him get some in the end of games when the game is won...
 
Is it actually possible to forget some of the players we have . I had with this lad .
We really are looking strong .

Spot on. We have 2 or 3 in Japhet, Rodon and Clarke that can stay with the 1st team. We then have Sess, Skipp, Parrott etc that will hopefully get a lot of football this coming season. Then there will be a couple of new names that emerge from the academy. There always is.

If Jose sticks around long enough, it will be really interesting to see whether he can get some of the kids through the entire cycle.
