Cobblers Want To Keep Defender

"It's a conversation I've had with Mick McCarthy and Mick wants to look at it a bit nearer the time," the Cobblers boss has said.

"Obviously they're pushing for the play-offs and things like that, and Jones is 6ft 2in, he's got a lovely left foot, loads of pace, and he's in form as well, so they might have a look at that.

"The problem we would have is that they would have an instant recall, but we're doing everything we can to extend his time at this club.

"I know he's really enjoyed his spell here and if he keeps putting performances in like the one at Forest on Saturday then I'm sure he will want to stay for longer.

"There's no way that Wolves want to sell him or go down that road at all."
