With Leeds United Academy graduate taking some time out for himself following the worrying illness that saw him taken to hospital for additional tests following the weekend’s clash with Middlesbrough, that hasn’t stopped the press regurgitating rumour after rumour about a potential departure away from Elland Road come the summer.
Despite the fact the media were wrong during the January window and the 18-year-old went nowhere last month, the stories doing the rounds are basically identical with the only change being the time of year said transfer is supposed to happen.
With Liverpool merely the latest club to be given a third wind as the red tops in print and online keep searching for easy content, Leeds United fans on social media have come up with a very simple response to any apparent, or real, interest from Anfield.
If you want our star of the future, give us your stars of the now and the not the Express’ lazy cash part swap deal with loved James Milner which seemed to spark the latest nonsense.
Love Milner, want him back but no chance I’d let them have Clarke. Need to keep him at all costs. #LUFC https://t.co/KKrE6P4nAX

I absolutely love jack clarke. But £20m+ and Milner would be great business. Milner is a prem seasoned pro… i want to keep clarke naturally. But Milners experience would be invaluable to our chances

Or alternatively, wait until Milner is out of contract and keep Clarke regardless!
