On the speculation, Howe said: "Jack will be the one who decides his future, in conjunction with Arsenal.
"It was very clear at the start of this loan he was going to make his decision in terms of the next steps for him in the summer.
"He just wanted to concentrate on his football with us, to try to just have the best season that he can.
"Jack has certainly had a good season with us as far as I am concerned, and it will be interesting to see what happens beyond that point."
On Wilshere's recent injury trouble, Howe added the midfielder could be available for Saturday evening's game against Bournemouth.
He said: ";He is certainly in the mix, a player of his quality.
"Jack picked up an ankle injury against Manchester City and in the following games we have picked up some good results, so it has been difficult to change a winning team when it is performing so well.
"We know his qualities and he is ready to go if he is selected on Saturday."
Bournemouth travel to local rivals Southampton for the 5.30pm kick-off on Saturday evening.
