Will Goodwin says the club’s philosophy and playing style was a big factor in his choice to join Gillingham.
Goodwin, 24, agreed a two-year deal with the Gills on Wednesday and becomes the club’s third signing of the summer window.
The striker outlined what he feels his strengths are and what fans can expect from him.
He said: “After speaking to the manager, his philosophy and playing style suits me to a tee.
“Attacking crosses. I like to get in the box and having spoken to the manager he likes his wingers or full-backs to do that [get crosses in] so it seemed like a great move for me to come here and use my best attributes, touches in the box and setting up players for first time shots.
“I am really excited to be here, it’s a great club."
Goodwin says he was keen to get a move sorted quickly so he could get settled in the area before players return for pre-season testing.
He added: “I really wanted to get in early doors and get settled because I knew I’d had to move so I like to get settled in an area that I may not be familiar with before pre-season starts.
“I don’t know any of the boys here, I have probably played against a few but it will be like a first day of school.”
