A signing that delivered much on paper, but never really produced it on grass, Hutton’s summer move away from Priestfield seemed inevitable when he appeared to fall out of favour with manager Gareth Ainsworth towards the end of the 2025/26 season, and now it’s finally happened.

The news dropped via the official Gillingham FC social channels, which announced that, “The club can confirm that it has agreed, along with the player, to terminate Remeao Hutton's contract by mutual consent.” And it didn’t take long after for the announcement to follow that Hutton had signed for Chesterfield.
