Manchester United will turn their attention to Norwich City teenager Max Aarons if they fail to sign Crystal Palace full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, according to Sky Sports.
United had a £40million bid for Wan-Bissaka rejected last week and are reportedly preparing a second bid for the England Under-21 international.
Should the Red Devils not meet Palace’s £60million valuation of the 21-year-old, it is claimed that they will then make a move for 19-year-old Aarons.
The former Luton Town man was a key member of Norwich’s Championship title-winning squad and was named the EFL Young Player of the Season and in the Championship team of the year.
