Yeovil manager Gary Johnson would like to keep Middlesbrough duo Jonathan Grounds and Jonathan Franks at Huish Park.

The pair signed for the Glovers on February 22 on an initial one-month loan, with the option of extending the deal until the end of the season. Following his side's 2-2 draw with Scunthorpe on Tuesday night, Johnson said: "They are both players I would like to keep long-term. "You'd have to ask them how they've settled in but certainly their football has. They are two players I knew of anyway and I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time to get them." Left-back Grounds, 24, is out of contract at the Riverside Stadium in the summer.
