Jack Clarke has expressed his delight after signing a four-year deal with Sunderland for an undisclosed fee. The former Tottenham Hotspur winger spent the second-half of last season on loan with the Black Cats and played an integral part in the Wearsiders winning promotion to the Championship.
Clarke made 20 appearances on loan last season and already has 43 Championship appearances under his belt - for Leeds United, Stoke City and QPR. He told safc.com : “I’m absolutely delighted to be back because I really enjoyed my time here last season.
"It felt right to return and after winning promotion to the Championship last season, I’m excited to play my part in the next step of our journey. We have a good balance in the squad and a great bond in the dressing room, so I believe we can continue to progress as a team and enjoy another successful season.”
