His impressive performances this season have apparently caught the eye of some of Europe’s big clubs.
United have earmarked Norwich right-back Aarons as their target, with Ole Gunnar Solskjær being a ‘huge admirer’ of the player.

Manchester United are desperate to make an impact in the winter transfer window.
Max Aarons is a skilled right-back who can make a difference at both ends of the pitch. His arrival would give United some much needed tactical flexibility.

Manchester United will have to present a really enticing offer to bring Norwich to the negotiating table. United have the resources to tempt them but it will be interesting to see if they are willing to overpay for the player.
Norwich City are preparing to sell their right-back should they receive a massive offer for him.
Max Aarons is also being watched by Everton.
Good signing for Manchester United?
It is smart from the club to invest in younger players, rather than splashing out big money on experienced players with no resale value.
Aarons is still quite young and he will only get better with experience. He would be a good long term investment for Manchester United. If he turns out to be a star like many expect, it could be one of the club’s smartest transfers.
The 20-year-old has all the skillset required to be a success story at Manchester United. Therefore, it makes sense for Solskjær to step up his attempts to bring the England right-back to Premier League side.
It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds in the next few weeks.
