Hide AdMyles Anderson, Ryan Donaldson, Nicky Featherstone, Scott Loach, Carl Magnay, Liam Noble and Luke Williams are all out of contract, but are locked in talks about extending their stay at the Super 6 Stadium.
Budgetary constraints mean it is unlikely all of those named will remain for next season's push towards the National League play-offs, but manager Craig Hignett has expressed his interest in keeping all of the seven with uncertain futures.
Skipper Ryan Donaldson is likely to follow Gavan Holohan in penning a new deal at Pools, with the likes of Myles Anderson and Nicky Featherstone also expected to remain.
Donaldson, one of Pools' most consistent performers last season, is likely to be announced before the weekend.
