Alex Pritchard hopes to get the green light for a season-long loan to Norwich if Spurs sign Saido Berahino.

Pritchard, 22, signed a new long-term contract at White Hart Lane this summer despite not starting for them in the top-flight.

Pritchard is also yet to feature this term and is wanted by promoted Norwich to play in the hole as a No.10.

Tottenham are closing in on a move for West Brom striker Berahino which is set to further restrict Pritchard's prospects.

Berahino has asked for a move and a deal with Albion is expected to be completed for around £25million plus defender Federico Fazio on loan.

Pritchard is already behind Christian Eriksen for the No.10 spot at the Lane and boss Mauricio Pochettino is now expected to play 4-4-2 to accommodate Berahino and Harry Kane.

Norwich have registered their interest in Pritchard as they want him to compete with Wes Hoolahan off the striker.

England U21 ace Pritchard is highly-rated after successful loans at Swindon and Brentford and has an eye for goal.

Norwich are preparing for a busy final week as they also want Wolves striker Benik Afobe, plus a winger and centre-back.

Swansea stopper Jordi Amat, 23, is in their sights but the deal has been held up as the Spaniard has a foot injury.
