Gillingham has named former Cambridge United boss Mark Bonner as their new head coach.
Bonner has signed a two-year deal with the club.
The 38-year-old takes over from Stephen Clemence, who was sacked from his role last month after leading the team for nearly six months.
Bonner previously led Cambridge United to promotion from League Two in 2021. However, he was relieved of his duties in November, with the team sitting four points above the League One relegation zone.
Speaking to the club's media team, Bonner said: “I am delighted to join Gillingham FC and can't wait to get started as Manager, as we get to work on preparing for the new season and building a team that supporters enjoy watching and a culture that the players love being part of.
"I have to thank Brad and Shannon for this opportunity and look forward to working closely with them, Joe, and Kenny to achieve the ambitions of the Football Club.”
