Clover tends to populate lawns on fast-draining light soil, and lawns that have not been fed.
Generally clover does not become a problem for a year or two.
If you want to get rid of it, spray in May with a lawn weedkiller containing the active ingredient mecoprop.
And feed the lawn more with lawn fertilizer.
