The 21-year-old embarks on his second spell away from Stamford Bridge
following a successful campaign at Stevenage in League Two last term.
After quickly establishing himself as first choice between the posts at
Broadhall Way, the Chelsea Academy graduate made 47 appearances in total
and kept an impressive 18 clean sheets, playing a big part in Stevenage
ending the campaign with the division's third-best defensive record
despite finishing 14th.
Prior to that maiden loan move, Cumming spent the 2019/20 season as
third-choice keeper at Chelsea behind Kepa Arrizabalaga and Willy
Caballero, deputising on the bench on five occasions.
He also kept goal in two triumphant FA Youth Cup campaigns and performed
penalty shoot-out heroics in a memorable UEFA Youth League semi-final
victory against Porto in 2018.
The Winchester-born keeper joins a Gillingham side that finished four
places outside the play-offs last season in England's third tier. Their
campaign begins at home to Lincoln City on Saturday 7 August.
