The promising 20-year-old joins the Foxes after coming through the ranks at West Midlands side Aston Villa and impressing on loan in League 2 with Port Vale last term, where he appeared 45 times in all competitions.

His performances and versatility helped the Staffordshire side secure their Football League status, with Clark’s outstanding pace helping to shine not only as a centre-back, but as a left and right-sided full-back too.

Clark made his professional debut for Aston Villa in a 4-1 EFL Cup victory over Wigan Athletic at Villa Park in August 2017 and has also represented Wales at both Under-17 and Under-19 levels.

After 12 years in the West Midlands, the exciting young defender will now continue his development as a Leicester City player.
