Aarons has put pen to paper on a long-term contract with the club ahead of the start of the 2019/20 Premier League season next month.

The teenage fullback played a key role in Norwich’s promotion to the top-flight, starting 41 of the 46 Championship matches.

According to PA journalist Nick Mashiter, Aarons has almost tripled his wages at Norwich with this latest extension – having only been given a professional contract around this time last year.
