# Arsenal eyeing January move for Aarons

Norwich City right-back Max Aarons is attracting interest from Arsenal, who have joined the race for the defender.

[According to The Mirror, via The BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/gossip), Arsenal and Tottenham are set to battle it out to land the talented youngster next month.

The report claims that Aarons is valued at £15m by Norwich, but they will only let him leave if they are able to have him back on loan for the rest of the season.

The 18-year-old has burst onto the scene at Carrow Road in August and has only lost two senior games since his first-team debut.

He has scored and assisted goals from right-back, whilst also showing that he is a solid defender going back towards his own goal.

With Norwich currently second in the table, it seems unlikely that the club would sanction an exit, but a big offer from a top four club could be too tempting to turn down.
