DeAndre Yedlin Life

DeAndre Roselle Yedlin (born July 9, 1993) is an American professional soccer player who competes for Newcastle United's national team and the United States national team.

Yedlin, who is primarily a right-back, has also played as a center-back, wing-back, and wide midfielder.

Personal life

Yedlin is a one-quarter black, one-quarter Native American, and half-Latvian. Yedlin and his mother are Jewish. Yedlin was close to his mother, Rebecca Yedlin, who was with him when she was young and now works as a college sports instructor; his father has never been involved in his life. He was raised by his maternal grandfather, Ira Nathan Yedlin, and Vicki Walton, a step-grandmother. Yedlin has a sister Jenea who is three years older than he is.

Darren Sawatzky, the Seattle Sounders youth director, first saw Yedlin play at age 11 and later said he was "an offensive player at the time, he was tumultuous, he was irritable, and he could run for days." "DeAndre has a natural quickness and speed," Seattle Sounders FC sports director Chris Henderson said of Yedlin: "DeAndre has a lot of energy and speed." He reads the game and maintains his position, but he is able to reach the flank and get crosses in."

Yedlin joined the USL Championship team San Diego Loyal SC in May 2021.
