Motherwell join transfer race for 23-goal Cheltenham Town hitman

Motherwell are reportedly in the running for Cheltenham Town striker Alfie May.

The 28-year-old has scored 20 times in League One this season and only trails Sunderland's Ross Stewart in the scoring charts.

Three goals in domestic cup competitions take him to 23 for the season and it has attracted interest.

Gloucestershire Live report that Motherwell, along with English Championship and League One teams, plus an Indian Super League side, want his services.

The forward has scored 13 in his last 12 games and no Robins player has enjoyed such a good season in front of goal at League One level.

May was wanted by San Diego Loyal of the The USL Championship in January before penning a new two-and-a-half year contract at the Jonny-Rocks Stadium.

Formerly of Doncaster Rovers, he joined Cheltenham for £5,000 in January 2020 after three years at the Keepmoat Stadium.

He's also had stints in non-league football with Corinthian, Billericay Town, Chatham Town, Bromley, VCD Athletic, Erith & Belvedere, and Hythe Town.
