Everton want to sign Norwich City right-back Max Aarons
Everton are considering making a move for Norwich City right-back Max Aarons, according to Calciomercato.
The Toffees have previously been linked with the 21-year-old [90min] and it looks as if their interest has been reignited with the January transfer window just around the corner.
Calciomercato claim that Roma have already had an offer rejected for Aarons, while Borussia Dortmund will also rival Everton for his signature.
However, the report says that it is Tottenham Hotspur who “have the greatest chance” of agreeing a deal.
It is suggested that the England Under-21 international is valued at £18.7million, while his wages are only around £23,000-per-week.
Good deal
Aarons has played every single minute for Norwich in the Premier League this season after being named in the 2020-21 PFA Championship Team of the Year as he helped the Canaries win the second tier title.
He has consistently been linked with a move elsewhere and his future surely lies away from Carrow Road, particularly if the club suffer relegation back to the Championship this season.
Former Norwich manager Daniel Farke has previously described Aarons as “outstanding” and someone who is “a special player” with “an unbelievable future”.
He is definitely a player Everton should try hard to sign, as the Toffees need to bring in a successor for Seamus Coleman at right-back.
Centre-backs Ben Godfrey and Mason Holgate have covered for the Irishman but have proved that they are not long-term solutions, while Jonjoe Kenny does not appear to have a future at Goodison Park.
At just 21 years old, Aarons should only continue improving, which makes him an extremely exciting prospect for whoever does prize him away from Norwich.
