Manchester United put off by price tag for 21-year-old defender

Man United set to end Aarons pursuit

Manchester United put off by price tag for 21-year-old defender

26 February 2021 - 19:53

Manchester United may cool their interest in Max Aarons after learning of the asking price set by Norwich City.

  • Arsenal in the front row to sign Dutch striker



  • The Red Devils are likely to spend on three new signings this summer and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants a new right-back to compete with Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

    Aarons has been identified as one of the top targets but The Express claims that they may be reluctant to meet his valuation.

    The Canaries are said to demand around £35m for the England youth international and have no desire to re-negotiate the sum.

    Hence, it is claimed that the Red Devils may end their pursuit of the 21-year-old, given such a figure could hamper the signing of a centre-back.

    Solskjaer is understood to prioritise a new central defensive partner for Harry Maguire and the club are assessing their options at the moment.

    Sevilla's Jules Kounde has been on the radar but a deal appears unlikely with United's put off by the staggering £68m price tag.
