USMNT's Richard Ledezma makes Eredivisie Team of the Month amid transfer rumors linking PSV defender to Club America

PSV's Richard Ledezma has been named to the Eredivisie Team of the Month for December after an impressive display across three domestic league matches, where he recorded one assist while making three starts.

He also appeared as a halftime sub in their 1-0 victory in the UEFA Champions League over Brest, and started an 8-0 victory over Koninklijke HFC in the KNVB Cup.

The 24-year-old, who has one U.S. national team cap, has since been the subject of transfer interest from Mexico powerhouse Club America, while the Dutch side has reportedly began contract extension discussions with Ledezma over a new deal as his expires at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

Ledezma's sole USMNT appearance came in 2020 in an international friendly against Panama. For PSV this campaign, though, he has broken out as a right back under the guidance of manager Peter Bosz, after he primarily crafted his trade as a midfield prior to this season.

He's made 11 appearances, nine of which have been starts, scoring one goal while playing 772 minutes. In PSV's lone defeat in December, Ledezma did not make the teamsheet in a 1-0 loss to SC Heerenveen. It was the only domestic match in which he did not start.

Ledezma is also eligible to represent the Mexican national team. The 24-year-old is a dual-national between El Tri and the USMNT, and with his lone cap for the U.S. coming in a friendly, he is eligible to use his allocated one-time switch as per FIFA rules.

PSV are back in action on Saturday when they take on AZ Alkmaar in Eredivisie action. The 24-year-old will look to make his first start of the calendar year, continuing over his strong form from December with the Dutch side.
