Overview

  • One Stop Business, a York-based finance firm, filed the petition that led to the bankruptcy order.
  • An order in the London Gazette freezes Clark’s assets under the Insolvency Service’s control pending debt settlement.
  • Unless he settles the debt, his bank accounts, savings and £2m Jesmond mansion could be seized to repay unsecured creditors.
  • Clark has insisted he was unaware of the bankruptcy ruling when approached at his Jesmond home.
  • The 52-year-old former midfielder made over 400 Premier League appearances for Newcastle United, Sunderland and Fulham before moving into management.
