Rees Seals A Deal At Gillingham As Another Steps Up
By Sam Elliott
Josh Rees is the latest National League player who will be plying his trade in the EFL next season.
Bromley’s free-scoring midfielder has earned a move to League One Gillingham.
Rees notched an impressive 16 goals in 41 games for the club last season - and that alerted the attention of the Gills.
Rees moves up after one year in the top tier of Non-League football having joined from Chelmsford City last July.
His manager Neil Smith thinks he will be a big success in the Football League.
“I am delighted for Josh, he has been a fantastic player for us this season and I am delighted that another Bromley player will be getting the chance to play League One football next season," Smith told the club's website.
He will be able to say a proper goodbye in a months’ time.
His new club travel to Hayes Lane for a pre-season friendly on Tuesday July 10.
