Max Aarons, born on 4 January 2000 (age 26), is an English right-back now with Bournemouth. His career, though, is still shaped far more by Norwich City than by anything that has followed.
At Norwich, Aarons became a first-team regular early and stayed central to the side for five seasons, making 201 league appearances and scoring five league goals. His most productive campaign came in 2018–19, when he scored two times in 41 league games, a heavy workload for a young full-back and the season that properly put him on the wider English radar.
The smaller development steps around that period sit in the background rather than taking over the story. Norwich gave him the volume of senior football that matters most in his profile: enough games to move him beyond prospect status, and enough exposure to make him a known quantity rather than a passing academy name.
Aarons is now at Bournemouth, with his market value around £3.5m according to Transfermarkt. His career to date is that of an established English full-back whose main body of work remains a long, durable spell at Norwich.
