About the player
Michael Luxton came through Gillingham's academy. He made his league debut for the club during the 2025/26 season.
He is a central midfielder who can also play in the defensive midfield role.
Gillingham kept Luxton for 2026/27, with a first league appearance behind him and a full season ahead in which to add to it.
For a player of his age, an academy graduate who has debuted and then been retained is at a familiar point. The debut showed he could be trusted with a place in a league match, and the retention shows that the club intends to keep working with him. What he makes of the extra minutes now available will decide how far he goes from here.
