Gillingham are set to appoint Mark Bonner as their new boss following Stephen Clemence’s exit, as per reporter Pete O’Rourke.
Gillingham have been on the lookout for a new boss following the decision to part ways with Clemence.
The League Two club sacked the former Aston Villa coach last week as the Gills finished 12th in the League Two table, six points away from the play-offs after a difficult campaign.
It seems the search has been a short one though, with a replacement already lined up.
Writing on X, reporter Pete O’Rourke states that Gillingham are poised to name Mark Bonner as their new manager.
Bonner, 38, has been out of the game since leaving League One side Cambridge United in March 2020. He was heralded for his work at his hometown club having worked as a youth coach, assistant manager and caretaker manager.
However, the call to relieve him of his duties was made with the club’s third-tier status in question having established their place in League One over his successful tenure.
