English Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that American defender DeAndre Yedlin will be joining the football team in January.

The 21-year-old defender penned a four-year contract with Spurs in August but had to finish his duty with the Seattle Sounders until the end of the Major League Soccer (MLS) season before joining the London-based club.
