Nick Pope is set to remain and Howe told ChronicleLive: "We will take a view on that. The goalkeeper situation has been slightly difficult this year.
"We have a high number of goalkeepers which probably wasn't ideal. Those players have handled that situation very, very well. It's not easy. They have been really good professionals, all of them.
"They have created a really good team network and trained really well. They have helped whoever has been playing be at their best for match day. I am full of compliments for them. But let's wait and see."
