Sunderland's Jack Clarke Linked to Ipswich Transfer

Sunderland head coach Regis Le Bris has confirmed that winger Jack Clarke is available for selection in the upcoming match against Burnley, despite ongoing transfer speculation involving Ipswich Town's bid of £15 million, potentially rising to £20 million with add-ons. Le Bris emphasized that Clarke trained well and is focused on playing for Sunderland, although he acknowledged the unpredictability of the transfer market and the possibility of Clarke's departure. Sunderland is reportedly considering the offer from Ipswich, as well as interest from other clubs, including Leeds United and Bournemouth. While Le Bris is preparing for the match, he admitted that if Clarke were to leave, replacing him might be challenging given the rarity of talented wingers in the market. Sunderland is actively monitoring potential replacements, including striker Roko Simic and forward Wilson Isidor, but Le Bris remains optimistic about Clarke's commitment for the time being.
