You can try to install the spotify plugin manually from the clementine repository.
You should grab the last blob & libspotify.so files.
1) Close Clementine application.
pkill clementine
2) Intall wget to download the plugin.
sudo apt-get install wget
For 32-bit
3) Create the folder structure for the plugin.
mkdir -p -m 775 ~/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/version14-32bit/
4) Go to the plugin folder.
cd ~/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/version14-32bit/
5) Download the plugin.
wgetwget
6) Give the correct perms to the plugin.
chmod 775 blob libspotify.so.12.1.45
Edit as per relaytheurgency comment
7) Rename the libspotify.so.12.1.45 to libspotify.so.12
mv libspotify.so.12.1.45 libspotify.so.12
For 64-bit
3) Create the folder structure for the plugin.
mkdir -p -m 775 ~/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/version14-64bit/
4) Go to the plugin folder.
cd ~/.config/Clementine/spotifyblob/version14-64bit/
5) Download the plugin.
wgetwget
6) Give the correct perms to the plugin.
chmod 775 blob libspotify.so.12.1.45
Edit as per relaytheurgency comment.
7) Rename the libspotify.so.12.1.45 to libspotify.so.12
mv libspotify.so.12.1.45 libspotify.so.12
8) Open Clementine and go to Menubar > Tools > Preferences > Internet providers > Spotify to set your account.
