DeAndre Yedlin tells Spurs: I'm ready!

Seattle Sounders fullback DeAndre Yedlin has declared he's ready to join Tottenham in January.

The 21-year-old right-back agreed a deal to join Spurs from Seattle Sounders in the summer then was loaned back to the MLS side.

"I've been trying to keep up with what's happening," Yedlin said. "I'm focusing on my season and what I'm doing, but I have been keeping up with them as well. Trying to keep in touch.

"I feel I'm ready wherever I'm put, I'm ready to step in, whether that's coming in and playing and challenging for a spot or coming in and having to work a little bit until I get a chance. I haven't spoken to Mauricio Pochettino but while I'm here I'll look to do that."
