Gillingham have completed the signing of defensive midfielder David Wright on loan for the second time this season.

Wright (pictured), who played seven games for the Gills earlier this season after a one-month spell that started in mid-September, is available for Gillingham's League 2 trip to Accrington this Saturday.

During his previous spell, Gills boss Martin Allen deployed Wright as a holding midfield player. In the seven games he played, Gills conceded just three goals as the club remained at the top of the table.

The move to sign Wright comes on the back of the 3-2 midweek defeat to Exeter and the transfer-listing of midfielder Jack Payne at the end of last week.
