The club is delighted to confirm the signing of Nick Freeman ahead of the 2026/27 season.
The former Wycombe, Stevenage and Shrewsbury midfielder, who can also operate in defence or at wing-back, joins the Gills following a trial period at MEMS Priestfield Stadium.
Nick began his career in non-league with Histon, Hemel Hempstead Town and Biggleswade before joining Wycombe in the summer of 2016. He went on to play 177 times for the Chairboys, scoring nine times in a seven year stay which also saw him earn promotion with the team to the Championship in 2020.
He signed for Stevenage in 2023, playing 86 times and scoring three goals before joining Shrewsbury in January 2026.
Freeman, 30, played at Dover Athletic earlier in pre-season before featuring against both Charlton and Millwall. He could make his competitive debut for Gills next Saturday at home to Luton in the Carabao Cup.
Speaking to the club website he said: "I am delighted to be here and get going. It's a great group of lads and staff.
"I have played for the Gaffer before and he always creates a really positive environment for the lads. It was a no brainer to be honest."
An interview with the player will appear on the web shortly.
