Jose Mourinho could have one of his loan players back among the squad before the transfer window closes.
Spurs are yet to sign anyone in the January transfer window, though they have seen Jack Clarke head out on loan to Stoke City.
After the arrival of seven new players in the summer window, Spurs made a strong start to the season and were among the leaders in the Premier League.
But following a defeat against Liverpool on Thursday night, they now sit eight points adrift of league leaders Manchester City.
Jose Mourinho is also facing an anxious wait on the fitness of Harry Kane after the striker suffered knocks to both ankles in the 3-1 defeat at home to Liverpool on Thursday night.
Reports state that the England captain could be out for a number of weeks, with the problem bad enough to see the 27-year-old substituted at half-time.
Mourinho has summer arrival Carlos Vinicius who can play in a long striker role, while Son Heung-min has also filled in for Kane before as a striker.
However, Spurs may be considering a recall for one of their loan players to boost squad numbers.
London News Online state that Troy Parrott could be heading back to Spurs with the striker not featuring regularly during his loan spell at Millwall.
The striker has made 10 starts in all competitions for the Lions this season after an ankle injury ruled him out until mid-November.
However, there is a chance that Spurs could recall the Republic of Ireland international before the January deadline passes.
This would allow Spurs to either keep Parrott among the current Spurs team, or send him out on loan to another club where he would feature more regularly.
