He became a key figure and the under-18 captain in Chelsea's youth surge after winning the FA Youth Cup twice and the UEFA Youth League. Clarke-Salter was included in Chelsea's pre-season tour of the US in 2015.[7] However, he failed to make a single appearance in Chelsea's disappointing campaign.

On 5 March 2016, Clarke-Salter appeared on Chelsea's substitutes' bench in a 1–1 draw with Stoke City.[8] On 2 April, he made his professional debut in Chelsea's 4–0 victory at Aston Villa, replacing Pedro in the 74th minute.[9] After the match John Terry praised him for his performance and attitude, and he also stated that Clarke-Salter has the potential to replace him one day.[10]

2016–17 season: Loan to Bristol Rovers

On 31 August 2016, Clarke-Salter joined League One side Bristol Rovers on a season-long loan along with teammate Charlie Colkett.[11] Despite joining Bristol Rovers on loan, Clarke-Salter stayed at Chelsea and continued to played for Chelsea u23 to regain fitness.[12]

Clarke-Salter made his debut in a 1–0 defeat on 28 September 2016 away to Sheffield United.[13] On 18 October 2016, Clarke-Salter played his second match for the Rovers in a 3–3 against Milton Keynes Dons, where he provided an assist for the second goal to the hat-trick scorer Matt Taylor.[14] On 22 October, Clarke-Salter scored his first goal for the Rovers in a 2–0 win over Oldham Athletic.[15] On 22 November 2016, Clarke-Salter was taken to hospital during the 5–1 loss against Charlton Athletic. After the match, Rovers manager Darrell Clarke, stated that Clarke-Salter a fractured his arm and it will be a while before he'll be back.[16] Clarke-Salter made his return from the injury in a 2–0 victory over Southend United. He was an 89th minute substitute, replacing man of the match and goalscorer of the second goal, Rory Gaffney.[17] He made his first start since his return from injury in the 1–0 victory over AFC Wimbledon.[18]

2017–18 season: Return to Chelsea and loan to Sunderland

Following a loan spell at Bristol Rovers, Clarke-Salter returned to Chelsea at the end of the 2016–17 campaign ahead of pre-season and signed a new four-year deal in July.[19] Ahead of the 2017–18 campaign, Clarke-Salter was given the number 35 jersey and made his first appearance of the season during Chelsea's 5–1 EFL Cup victory over Nottingham Forest.[20]

On 8 January 2018, Clarke-Salter joined Championship side, Sunderland on loan for the remainder of the campaign.[21] Just under a week later, he made his debut during Sunderland's 4–0 away defeat against Cardiff City, playing the full 90 minutes.[22] On 24 February 2018, Clarke-Salter was shown a red card for a challenge on Middlesbrough's Adama Traore in a match that ended in a 3–3 draw.[23] In his first game back from suspension, Clarke-Salter was dismissed again after receiving a second yellow card in a 2–0 defeat against Preston North End.[24]

On 2 July 2018, Clarke-Salter agreed to join Dutch side Vitesse on a season-long loan.[25]

2019–20 season: Loan to Birmingham City

Clarke-Salter signed for Championship club Birmingham City on 24 July 2019 on loan for the season.[26] He made his debut on 6 August in the EFL Cup first round visit to Portsmouth. Manager Pep Clotet fielded an inexperienced team, and Clarke-Salter played the whole of the 3–0 defeat.[27] He did not play in the Championship until 1 October, taking the place of the injured Marc Roberts in the starting eleven for the 1–0 defeat away to Wigan Athletic. According to the manager, "he played with a lot of maturity, he was very focused, he dealt very well with the physicality of the game and worked very well with Harlee [Dean] as well. He also covered the line very well. I think on the ball he was very good as well so it was a very positive game for him."[28] His performance was similarly positive in his next appearance a month later, when he replaced the suspended Dean for a 1–0 defeat at home to Fulham.[29] He scored his first goal for Birmingham in a 1–1 draw against Millwall on 30 November 2019.[30]

International career

Clarke-Salter was selected for the England U20 in the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

Clarke-Salter made his England U21 debut in a 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification match, home against Romania U21 where he also scored his first England U21 goal in a 2–1 victory to England U21s on 24 March 2018.[33]
