The 34-year-old was Northampton Town's top scorer in League One last season, with 10 goals, but was released following their relegation.

"I am delighted to be back and I am so grateful for the opportunity to return to a club I have such admiration for," Eaves told Gillingham's official website.

Eaves previously played for Rotherham United, Hull City, Yeovil Town, Shrewsbury Town, Bristol Rovers, Bolton Wanderers and Oldham Athletic.
