Ciaran Clark has become the latest Newcastle United player to leave this summer after joining Sheffield United on loan. The defender was left out of Eddie Howe's 25-man squad earlier this year and has trained with the reserves in recent weeks.
Clark joins the Championship outfit on a season-long loan deal before his Newcastle contract expires in 2023. He joins Jeff Hendrick, Isaac Hayden and Freddie Woodman who have recently left the Magpies for second-tier clubs.
"He's played at international level, this league and the one above and also the fact he wanted to come here," Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom said this week. "We weren't the only ones wanting to take him but he wanted to come to us and we say all the time how important that is. If we get that over the line it should be a good one for us."
