Grimsby Town midfielder Jamie Clarke and goalkeeper Gary Montgomery have both agreed new one-year contracts with the Mariners.
The duo arrived from Rotherham United and Boston United respectively a year ago and did enough last term to earn a second season at Blundell Park.
Manager Alan Buckley told the Evening Telegraph: "Both have agreed to stay and accepted their offers and will sign at the end of this week. I am pleased they are staying on.
"The reason for bringing Monty in last summer bore fruition with the displays of Phil Barnes and his addition was well worthwhile, even if he would have wanted more games.
"Clarkey, too, proved his worth last year. He came with probably something to prove, but he acquitted himself well.
"He had to be patient, but did well when he got into the team in a variety of positions."
