Gillingham boss Andy Hessenthaler has dismissed speculation linking the club to Dover duo Ross Flitney and Matt Fish.

Hessenthaler signed the pair during his time at Dover and both players are out of contract at Crabble, leading to rumours of a switch to Priestfield.

Flitney is a former Arsenal youth goalkeeper and served as an understudy in the Premier League at Fulham, while right-back Fish (pictured) is a former Crystal Palace youth player, who is widely expected to take a step up in class this summer.

Hessenthaler insists the pair are not on his radar at present.

He said: "They are two lads I brought into Dover but there has been no contact from us and there is nothing happening there."
