Jack Clarke's weekly wage: How much Sheffield United might have to pay Ipswich Town ace | OneFootball

Sheffield United have been linked with a move to sign Jack Clarke

Jack Clarke was an instrumental figure in Ipswich Town’s promotion success this season.

The winger joined the Tractor Boys in the 2024 summer transfer window from Sunderland following their second place finish in the Championship.

However, the Suffolk outfit suffered relegation from the Premier League after just one season, returning to the second tier under Kieran McKenna.

But the 39-year-old has overseen the club’s return to the top flight with another second place finish in the table.

Clarke contributed 16 goals and one assist from 46 appearances, but it has been reported by The Star that Sheffield United are now considering an approach for the winger this summer.

Here we use estimated figures from Capology to look at the 25-year-old’s Ipswich wages as the Blades circle…

Jack Clarke’s Ipswich wages

Clarke made the switch to Ipswich in 2024 after impressing in the Championship with Sunderland.

He contributed 15 goals and four assists in his final full campaign with the Black Cats as they finished 16th in the table.

However, the winger was unable to find the back of the net in the Premier League, despite registering four assists, with McKenna’s side coming 19th.

Clarke signed a contract with the Tractor Boys until June 2029, meaning he still has three years left on his deal.

The forward agreed a salary worth £25,000 per week with the Suffolk outfit as part of his move from the Stadium of Light.

Clarke is not the highest paid member of McKenna’s side, with that honour jointly going to Leif Davis and Dara O’Shea.

The pair are paid £35,000 per week, while a number of players are receiving £30,000 per week from the newly-promoted side.

That included Ashley Young, who has announced his retirement from the game, as well as Azor Matusiwa and Ben Johnson.

Meanwhile, George Hirst, Christian Walton and Darnell Furlong are all paid £27,500-a-week.

Sheffield United endured a disappointing campaign, with Chris Wilder’s side coming 13th in the table just 12 months after losing the play-off final to Sunderland.

The Blades will be targeting a more sustained promotion push next season, with a left-winger on the agenda ahead of the transfer window opening next month.

While it remains to be seen whether Clarke can be convinced to join, the Yorkshire outfit will be busy planning for the season ahead.

Their top earner is currently Japhet Tanganga, with the defender arriving last summer on a deal worth £35,000 per week.

A number of players are also receiving £30,000 per week from the Yorkshire outfit, which is the kind of figure Clarke might be expecting as part of a potential move.

Those players include Gus Hamer and Patrick Bamford, as well as the departing Tom Davies and Danny Ings.

Clarke might have his sights set on competing in the Premier League next season with Ipswich, but he started just 23 of his 46 appearances in the Championship this year.
