CHARLTON ATHLETIC have become the first club to make a formal bid for in-demand Cheltenham Town striker Alfie May - with former club Doncaster Rovers entitled to a percentage of any transfer fee from any sale.

May, who has scored a combined total of 48 goals in his past two seasons in Gloucestershire - and is the Robins record EFL scorer - is reportedly a target for a number of clubs.

Derby County are among other suitors for the 29-year-old, with it being very much in Doncaster's interests for a bidding war to spark up this summer.
