Moyes wants a better player than Yedlin

TRANSFER TALK

New Sunderland manager David Moyes has confirmed that he has talked about 23-year-old (24 next July) Tottenham defender DeAndre Yedlin. He has confirmed Sunderland need a right-back, but that he wants to look to see if there is a better player available or better value player available.

DeAndre Yedlin improved in the last half of last season with regular first team football when Sam Allardyce was forced to turn to him when his first choice right-back totally lost his form. Mauricio Pochettino has been having a look at him in training and on the recent tour to Melbourne, Australia for the International Champions Cup.

He was given game time at left-back, but his problem is that we have two right-backs and two left-backs. It is hard to see how he fits into the squad so unless he is sold perhaps another loan deal should be sought to a newly promoted club, if they need a right-back.
