Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have received a boost in their reported quest to sign Max Aarons from Norwich City in the summer transfer window.

The Sun reported last month that Arsenal and Manchester United are leading the race for Norwich right-back Aarons.

Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also reported to be keen on the 22-year-old, who can also operate as a left-back and is valued at £20 million by the Canaries.

The Telegraph have now reported that Norwich will sell the English youngster, as they have been relegated the Championship.

The Gunners are a rich club, and if they are able to finish in the Champions League places in the Premier League table this season, then they would be able to afford the £20 million transfer fee for Aarons.

With ease.

Aarons, described as a player who “has got huge potential” by former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand on his YouTube channel in September 2021, has made 28 starts and two substitute appearances in the Premier League this season, providing one assist in the process.

The defender is only 22 now, and there is every reason to believe that he will get better in the coming years.
