Norwich boss Daniel Farke insists Max Aarons has not had his head turned by talk of Barcelona interest and revealed the full-back has been dubbed 'Dani Alves' in training.
Aarons has reportedly been targeted by the Catalan giants but Farke says the 20-year-old full-back will feature in Sunday's Sky Bet Championship trip to Bournemouth.
'Several times we have been calling him Dani Alves or Barca and he has handled this with a smile,' Farke said at his pre-match press conference.
'When it is a difficult topic it is good to take the seriousness out of it.
'It is never easy but Max has the personality to handle it.'

'Ever since he signed for this football club Dom's attitude has been first-class,' Tindall said. 'He's a huge player for this football club.'
