Tottenham are expected to increase their interest in Norwich right-back Max Aarons ahead of the summer window, according to the Mirror.
The 19-year-old has been excellent for the Canaries as they chase promotion to the Premier League. The English right-back has started 25 Championship games this season and has scored two goals and provided four assists so far.
The report claims that Tottenham were interested in a winter deal for the 19-year-old and have constantly tracked the rising star.
Norwich are determined to hold onto their starlet, and the report adds that the Canaries slapped a £15million price-tag to scare off interested parties.
However, the report claims that Norwich know they will have a battle on their hands to keep Aarons. Arsenal and Chelsea are also interested in the youngster, but Spurs are leading the race for the full-back’s signature.
Tottenham are expected to go back to their principle of buying young British talent (h/t Mirror) and are also tracking Jack Clarke of Leeds United. Spurs were the only club not to sign any players this season, and it would be a major surprise if we didn’t bring new faces to the club in the summer.
Aarons is one of the top stars from the Championship and it will be interesting to see if Norwich gain promotion to the Premier League.
