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]

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] Linked with a loan move to Norwich City throughout pre-season, Chelsea instead rejected loan offers due to a lack of depth in the current first-team squad.[20] 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.[21]
