Speaking about deadline day to ESPN Soccernet, Whelan said: "I don't think the game will affect things, really.
"There are people within the club that know what the thoughts of the manager are and they get on and do it.
"You concentrate on what job you are supposed to do so that's got nothing to do with it.
"Nothing is imminent as far as I am aware, but in the past Tottenham have come in with a late purchase and there's always a possibility in football."
