Gillingham have moved to strengthen their attacking options out wide with the permanent signing of former Salford City winger Kadeem Harris.

Harris arrives at Priestfield after narrowly missing out on promotion from League Two with Salford City. But now, after entering free agency in the summer, he has decided to head south to team up with his old teammate at Wycombe, Gareth Ainsworth, at Priestfield.

Harris made his senior debut for The Chairboys back in 2009 as a 16-year-old, while Ainsworth was one of the senior professionals at the club, and by the 2011-2012 season was a regular part of the first-team setup at Adams Park.
