Daniel Levy is one of the better chairmen in world football, and we have seen how his deals have reaped mighty dividends for Spurs in the ongoing summer window where the club has filled coffers owing to his transfer acumen where sell-on clauses have earned major benefits at N17.
Spurs Premier League rival Ipswich Town are finalising a deal to bring Jack Clarke from Sunderland, which would earn Spurs a hefty windfall this summer.
Struggles at N17
The Lilywhites signed Clarke in a highly anticipated deal from Leeds United in 2019 while he was still a teenager. However, he found it difficult to settle into life in North London and eventually went on to join the Black Cats in 2022.
He has come through with his potential in the past couple of years at the Stadium of Light and was one of the best offensive players in the English second tier in the previous campaign.
Spurs’ sell-on clause pays off as Clarke joins Ipswich
Spurs supporters would be paying close attention to the transfer speculations surrounding Clarke, as the club holds a 25 percent sell-on clause in his original deal when he signed for Sunderland.

And Tottenham would be receiving a significant chuck of the buck as his transfer to Ipswich Town comes close.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano insists that a £20m package transfer for Clarke to Ipswich is underway, which would earn Spurs a £5m windfall if all add-ons are met.
