Tottenham are in constant contact with Nowrich's Max Aarons' representatives - report
Tottenham are reportedly going all out to convince Max Aarons to make the switch from Norwich.
Aarons is a long-term target of Tottenham's and could be edging closer to a move to North London.
Spurs have intensified their efforts to sign the young Englishman and are 'calling every day', according to Football Insider.
Aarons has been identified by Spurs' scouting team as possessing the qualities needed to make him an elite player.
The same guidelines were used to assess Ryan Sessegnon before Spurs signed him from Fulham last summer.
Norwich rely heavily on Aarons, who was a fundamental part of their Championship-winning side last year.
The same can be said in the Premier League with the 20-year-old playing the full 90 minutes in 20 out of 22 games so far.
The right-back position has become a problem for Spurs, who have struggled to fill the role since Kyle Walker left for Manchester City.
