Gillingham sign former Southampton and Torquay midfielder Armani Little after he turned down new deal at AFC Wimbledon

Gillingham boss Mark Bonner has made his second signing of the summer.

The Gills have signed midfielder Armani Little, who joins after turning down a new deal at AFC Wimbledon.

Gills boss Mark Bonner said: “Armani is an excellent addition to our midfield. A tenacious, all energy player who plays with personality.

“He will give us good balance and handles the ball well with a good passing range.

“He has a character that everyone will warm to and will help us become the team we want to be."

The much-travelled 27-year-old started his career at Southampton before impressing during a loan spell with Woking in 2018/19.

That saw him land a permanent deal with Torquay in 2019 and he then moved to Forest Green for an undisclosed fee in 2022.

He joined AFC Wimbledon on loan in January 2023 and turned that move permanent last summer.

Little, who featured 44 times for Wimbledon in 2023/24, added: “I am really pleased to be here and can't wait to get going.

“I like to get on the ball and hopefully I can add a few goals.”
