Bristol Rovers striker Jo Kuffour is being linked with a loan move to Gillingham.

Sky Sports are reporting that the 29-year-old is heading to Priestfield on a deal that will run until Christmas.

Kuffour has started just three games for the Pirates this season and is known to be keen to get some games under his belt as he is out of contract at the end of the season.

Whether Gillingham really need him is questionable as they have only recently brought West Ham United striker Frank Nouble in on loan.

Should Kuffour agree to the switch, he could well be available for Gillingham’s trip to AFC Wimbledon this weekend.

Kuffour is a player with considerable Football League experience, having taken in spells at Torquay, Brentford and Bournemouth.

He has scored goals wherever he has been and Gillingham hope the former Arsenal trainee will help to cement their top-seven standing in League Two.
