Tottenham face battle from Wolfsburg for Max Aarons.

Arsenal have entered the race for Norwich City defender Max Aarons, according to the Mirror.

Tottenham are in a great position as they look to sign the 18-year-old, as per the report, however, the Gunners will match any move we make for the right-back.

Aarons has been exceptional for the Canaries this season as they look to gain promotion to the Premier League, and only made his league debut for the side in September.

The report claims that Norwich have made it clear that they will not accept any deal unless it ensures the £15million-rated youngster is loaned back to the side for the rest of the season.

The 18-year-old has done a bang-up job with two goals and three assists from 20 Championship games and also has a handful of England U19 appearances under his belt.

The 18-year-old would be a decent signing for us, and it will be interesting to see if we land the player soon.

Mauricio Pochettino has worked wonders with several players throughout his career, and Tottenham are reaping the benefits of that this season.

As far as our right-back situation is concerned, we have Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker-Peters and Serge Aurier in our side.

All three of them have been given opportunities this season, however, none of them has been consistent.

Trippier was poor in our loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers over the weekend, and Aarons could be the solution for the position for years to come.
