          The 2014 World Cup was a turning point in United States defender DeAndre Yedlin's career. The 21-year-old's breakout performance in that tournament led to a transfer from the Seattle Sounders to Tottenham Hotspur in August 2014, however a lack of playing time in the 2014-15 campaign combined with Tottenham's recent signing of Burnley defender Kevin Trippier imply that Yedlin is not quite ready to become a regular contributor to a top-flight Premier League club.
