Gillingham have boosted their midfield options by signing Danny Lloyd.

The left-winger joins the Gills after rejecting a new contract at League 2 club Tranmere.

Gillingham boss Steve Evans worked with the 29-year-old at Peterborough.

Lloyd went on to join Salford for £250,000 a year later, before linking up with Tranmere last season, helping them reach the League 2 play-offs.

Evans said: "Lloydy is a top player who was excellent at Tranmere last season.

"He showed a commitment to work with Paul (Raynor) and myself by turning down more lucrative contracts from League 1 and League 2 clubs.

"The lad has a great left foot, works his socks off and is a nice signing.

"No one enjoys playing against him. Gary Neville is, in my opinion, an excellent judge of a player and his club bought him for decent money.

"I look forward to working with him again."
