According to The Express, Arsenal could well revisist their past interest in Norwich City defender, Max Aarons, during the January transfer window.

The report claims that while Manchester United are now also in the hunt for Aarons, Arsenal and Spurs could both revive their interest in the Canaries right-back, who has once again impressed in the Championship.

Aarons, 20, was courted in the summer by Barcelona but stayed in Norwich with Daniel Farke, despite seeing fellow young full-back, Jamal Lewis, move to Newcastle United.

Specifically with Arsenal, it is claimed that Mikel Arteta could be willing to allow Hector Bellerin to leave the club, seemingly opening a gap in the first XI for Aarons to step into.

Aarons has made over 20 appearances this season but impressed at PL level last term, too. He made 36 appearances despite Norwich going down, laying on two assists in the process.

Aarons is one of the finest players in the Championship and also one of the top young players in the entire English game.

If Arsenal can land him, then it would be a fine piece of business by Mikel Arteta’s club as they continue to build and strengthen for the future.

Aarons has already proven he can do it at Premier League level as well, meaning he’d take little getting used to the league. However, Norwich will likely demand a decent sum for their man, especially given their explosive start to the Championship season.
