Klinsmann: US soccer super excited Yedlin joining Tottenham

USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann is happy with DeAndre Yedlin's move to former club Tottenham.

The Seattle Sounders fullback is expected to join Spurs in January.

"We are super-excited that he is coming here," said Klinsmann. "He is highly talented, has great pace, good character, a good kid and he wants to learn. Spurs will get a huge talent, but also, similar to the coaches, a talent who needs time.

"I want DeAndre to come here to build that special relationship with Spurs. For me it was a tremendous learning experience."
