Tottenham will consider loan offers for rising attacking midfielder Alex Pritchard in January if fails to make a first team impact.

Pritchard has returned to White Hart Lane following a successful loan spell at Brentford last season and manager Mauricio Pochettino believes he can play an important role in his senior plans his season.

Pochettino, though, has a wealth of attacking talent in his squad and will consider loaning Pritchard out to rival Premier League side early next year if he fails to make the breakthrough.

Norwich, who tried to land the England Under-21 star on loan last month, will revive their interest if he becomes available in January.

If Spurs decide to let Pritchard leave; Pochettino's preference is for him to join a top-flight side.

However, Queens Park Rangers are understood to be interested, manager Chris Ramsey having worked with Pritchard in Spurs' academy.

The 22-year-old recently signed a new four-year deal at White Hart Lane, an indication of how highly-rated he is at Spurs.
