IPSWICH: Ipswich Town have signed forward Jack Clarke from Championship side Sunderland on a five-year contract, the newly promoted Premier League club announced late on Saturday.

Financial details of the transfer were not disclosed by either club, but English media reported that Ipswich paid Sunderland 15 million pounds ($19.8 million) for the 23-year-old.

Clarke has scored 28 goals in 114 appearances for Sunderland. He was initially loaned from Tottenham Hotspur and made a permanent move to Sunderland in 2022. Clarke is Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna’s 10th signing in the close-season.
