He was out of contract in the summer anyway, this was just a way of letting him know that he shouldn't expect any chance of a return after this loan.
Not played in Holland since he was linked with Leicester and Liverpool. Either had his head turned or Vitesse’s owners took the hump with him I guess.
This is a fantastic (re)signing. Clark looked a real talent before he left and did well in the Netherlands when Sluts was boss too. Excellent news.
Keeping mine on. Whilst I'm pleased to see a Hull born lad back at City, unless we get promoted he'll be gone come the Summer. Would love to be wrong.
Am I the only one who doesn't get the euphoria over Max coming back. It's good to have another Hull lad around, but he wasn't good enough for us in the Champ, did okay with Vitesse but got some wild speculation over a move to a big club, which wasn't happening. He's decent cover don't get me wrong but I think he's a downgrade on Fleming. Talking of local lads, Jack Marriott might be leaving for a L1 club today, Grant's worked with him before. That would get the juices flowing to say the least
Ref. Max Clark, he was in Hull David Lloyds January 1st, my nephew who played with him at youth level saw him there and had a chat...
. Google translated a few comments from Vitesse fans, they don't think he's very good. He's been back in the UK for a few months from what I've read and his agent has been trying to fix him up with a club all season
But also given the low deals we now offer, maybe we weren't prepared to pay his Dutch wages so ending his contract there and starting a new short-term one at a lower wage with us was the only option. And in a time of Covid, he was probably keen to be back near his family.
A good signing as back up to Elder IMO. He is a steady left back, not outstanding, but can do a reliable job. He lacks a bit of pace going forward, but defends well enough and he can deliver a good cross when he gets into the right area. Fleming has more potential to be the complete left back or left wing back, defends well, has good pace going forward and delivers a good cross.
Decent back up option. Solid if not unspectacular. Hopefully being in a lower division will help him get his confidence back.
That is very true but if Elder was injured (god forbid) this week and Clark has not played for 11 months we still don't have any cover.
