Emil Krafth won't be put under pressure to make a playing return until next season - after missing out on the entire season with a bad knee injury.
The Sweden international is back up and running at the training ground but is cautiously feeling his way back to the first team stage. Krafth was hurt at Tranmere Rovers way back in August just weeks after signing a new deal for the club.
But even though there is hope that he could play against before May 28, Howe won't pile on the pressure in terms of a return.
