Middlesbrough forward Lee Tomlin has urged the club to try their best to sign Danny Graham on a permanent basis this summer.

Graham scored six goals for the club after joining on loan from Sunderland in January, and Tomlin admits that he is desperate to work with the 28-year-old again next season.

"I'd really like to see Danny stay," Tomlin told the Middlesbrough Gazette. "He's brilliant to play with up front and he helps us express ourselves.

"It's up to the club, but I hope they can do a deal to keep him. He's been great for me and for the team."

Emmanuel Ledesma has also expressed his desire to continue working with Graham.
