Yedlin was sold to Newcastle last year, and Walker went up against him this evening for Manchester City, having left Spurs himself this summer.

Walker’s City came out on top, winning 1-0 through a Raheem Sterling goal.

He sent a message to Yedlin after the game, offering the US international his best wishes for the rest of the season.

All the best bro @yedlinny

Yedlin’s decision to leave Tottenham has worked out well for him, as he has now established himself as a regular in the Premier League at Newcastle.

He has made 15 starts this season for Rafa Benitez’s side, although he will be hoping their results pick up in 2018, as their poor form has them down in 15th place, unlike Kyle Walker’s runaway league leaders Manchester City.
