Gillingham have signed former Port Vale midfielder Doug Loft on a free transfer.
The 27-year-old, who recently turned down a new deal at Vale Park, has penned a two-year contract with the Gills.
"I'm very pleased," manager Peter Taylor told the club's official website. "He's a player I have looked at for a very long time. He's a very good professional who can play in three or four positions and he's a leader.
"He's been a good servant to Port Vale, but we are delighted to get him."
Loft scored nine goals in 43 appearances for Port Vale last season.
