Gillingham have completed the signing of a striker from the division above.

Pacey forward Josh Walker, 26, has joined on loan until the end of the season from League 1 Burton Albion.

Walker started out in Tottenham’s youth side and later went on to play for Fulham’s under-23s before moving into non-league where he went from Hendon to Barnet.

Three seasons with Barnet was followed by a move to Dagenham in the summer of 2021 where he scored 11 goals in his debut season there and improved that tally with 12 in the first half of the following campaign - including against the Gills in the FA Cup - before moving to Burton this time last year.

His move to the Gills became possible after Burton landed highly-rated striker Ademola Ola-Adebomi on loan from Crystal Palace until the end of the season.

He scored twice for the Brewers in 16 appearances during the second half of the 2022/23 campaign and once so far this season in 19 matches. Most of his appearances in the league have come off the bench.

He should be available for the Gills this Saturday when they head to MK Dons.

Speaking to the club, he said: "I am delighted to be here. I heard about the interest a couple of days ago and it was a no-brainer for me.

"I like to get off the shoulder, I can finish with both feet, I'm quick. I'm ready to go."

Gills head coach Clemence has now added two players to his ranks following the signing of Remeao Hutton last week, but said: “I am hoping that's not the end of it either, we will have to see what happens.”
