Gillingham team news ahead of League 2 match against Salford City - battle for goalkeeper spot between Glenn Morris and Jake Turner while George Lapslie returns to training

The battle for the goalkeeper spot at Gillingham is on after Jake Turner returned to training this week.

Turner missed the league match against Wrexham last weekend and was replaced in goal by 40-year-old stopper Glenn Morris, helping the Gills to a 1-0 win at Priestfield.

It was Morris’ first league appearance this season after Turner took over as the club’s no.1 ahead of the current campaign. Now back fit, after heavy bruising, Turner will be keen to reclaim his place.

Gillingham head coach Stephen Clemence said: “We have got two good goalkeepers, Glenn has had a marvellous career and Jake has done very well this season.

“It’s a difficult decision but a good problem to have.”

George Lapslie has missed the last two games with a hamstring strain but is expected to be available again this weekend.

Clemence said: “He is definitely someone you want around the squad.”

That could mean captain Shaun Williams dropping out of the 18 having featured on the bench as an unused substitute in the last two games.

He's had surgery now and there’s a chance the exciting loan forward could be back before the end of the season
