Sheffield United have allowed Jonathan Forte to extend his loan stay at Doncaster Rovers until the end of the season.

The 20-year-old Blades starlet is enjoying his third loan spell with Rovers and has scored five times in 26 League One appearances for the club this term.

"It's good news for us and will benefit Jono with him being settled now," Rovers boss Sean O'Driscoll told the club's official website.

"He brings speed to the front and he's still learning his trade. Hopefully, when he goes back to United, he'll be a better player with the experience he gets with us."

Forte, who also enjoyed a loan spell with Rotherham United last term, has made five starts and 34 appearances from the substitute's bench for Sheffield United.
