DeAndre Yedlin (D/M)- Seattle Sounders

Age: 21

Best fit for: England, Italy

Okay so this is technically cheating since we know DeAndre’s on his way out. The question here really isn’t if as much as it is when.  Yedlin is slated to join English side Tottenham sometime in 2015 but if we’ve learned one thing about UK’s work permit policy, it’s that it’s yucky and no one likes it. In the meantime, Yedlin’s quest to obtain a Latvian passport could avoid a Juan Agudelo 2.0 incident.
