Tottenham fans have been discussing the possibility of signing Norwich City’s Max Aarons on Twitter, and it is a transfer they are excited by.
The Daily Mail have reported that the club has taken an interest with Mauricio Pochettino keen to add both “athleticism and energy” to his squad, both of which are traits Aarons possesses.
The right-back burst onto the scene with the Canaries last season and was an important player in their promotion push, making 43 appearances, and his performances have been recognised with recent call-ups to the England U21s.
Nathan Ferguson is another player the club is believed to be monitoring, and like him Aarons would provide attacking intent down Spurs’ right-flank, as highlighted by his six assists last year.
Mauricio Pochettino is likely keen to improve in the position with Serge Aurier an unreliable option having disappointed often this season.
The fact the Argentine has used four different players there this season, including Kyle Walker-Peters, Davinson Sanchez and even Moussa Sissoko highlights the lack of depth, and that means Aarons could be a realistic purchase.
However, he only signed a new contract with Norwich in the summer, and with the club languishing in the relegation zone it is unlikely that the club want to sell, and therefore Tottenham may have to wait until the summer.
Nevertheless, the rumour is offering encouragement to fans, some of which are keen on signing him.
