**Huddersfield Town Eye Alfie May After Initial Bid Rejected**
Huddersfield Town are set to return with a fresh offer for Charlton Athletic’s prolific striker Alfie May after their initial bid was turned down. The former Doncaster Rovers striker, who won the League One Golden Boot, scored 27 goals in 50 appearances for Charlton last season and is entering the final year of his contract at The Valley.
### A Reunion with Michael Duff?
May, who will turn 31 next month, has previously worked under Huddersfield manager Michael Duff during their time together at Cheltenham Town. The potential reunion could be beneficial for both parties, given their successful past collaboration.
### Financial Considerations
While Charlton rejected the initial offer, they may be open to selling May if they can secure a suitable replacement and if the financial terms are right. May himself is likely to be open to a move back north, which could play in Huddersfield’s favor.
### Boosting Huddersfield’s Attack
Huddersfield struggled for goals in the 2023-24 season, and securing a proven goal-scorer like May, who has netted 73 goals in 204 third-tier appearances, could significantly strengthen their attacking options.
### Other Transfers in League One
**Jordan Williams to Portsmouth**
Former Barnsley captain Jordan Williams has signed with Portsmouth, despite interest from Cardiff City and West Brom. The 24-year-old, who previously played for Huddersfield, chose to leave Barnsley at the end of his contract.
**Brad Halliday Stays with Bradford City**
Brad Halliday has extended his stay at Bradford City, signing a new deal that keeps him at the club until June 2026. The former Doncaster defender has made 104 appearances since joining Bradford two years ago and was named in the EFL League Two Team of the Season last term.
These moves indicate a busy transfer window in the lower leagues as clubs look to strengthen their squads ahead of the new season. Huddersfield Town’s pursuit of Alfie May, in particular, will be one to watch as they aim to add firepower to their lineup.
