Both Clarke and England Under 20 Matt Phillips provided massive successes at United after scoring a combined total of seven goals between them during October and November. They were integral to wins against MK Dons and Preston.
After returning to the Seasiders a month ago Clarke has struggled to break into the Blackpool first team and after Blackpool’s reserve team was disbanded he is very much in need of first team practice.
A Blackpool source for The Star said
Blackpool have a good relationship with United and they prefer doing business with clubs they get along with so that counts for a lot.
“Plenty can change but if Billy does look for a loan again that could be the first choice.”
With United still in need of a bit of pace up front and James Beattie looking still a long way off fitness. Watch this space.
