Many Newcastle United fans have been discussing a news update about DeAndre Yedlin that recently emerged on social media.
Journalist Lee Ryder recently wrote an article for the Chronicle, saying that Yedlin is currently a target for Turkish side Trabzonspor, who are looking to sign him on a free transfer as the American right-back’s current contract at Newcastle runs out at the end of the current season.
Should Newcastle sell Yedlin?
Yes
No
Yedlin’s potential move away from St. James’ Park could see Newcastle free up space for a loan move for another right-back. He has also been linked with German clubs and clubs in MLS.
This update about Yedlin was relayed on Twitter by the Chronicle. It caught the attention of many Newcastle fans, who began talking about the American.

Can’t tackle, can’t cross, poor ball control, poor awareness, poor fitness record…under this regime those things mean you fit in perfectly but let’s hope he’s released.
