Adam May: Cambridge United midfielder will miss rest of season with ACL injury

Adam May has played 112 games for Cambridge United, scoring 10 goals
Cambridge United midfielder Adam May will not play again this season after suffering a serious knee injury.
The 24-year-old ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament in the 2-1 defeat by Bristol Rovers on 8 October.
May, signed from Portsmouth in the summer of 2020, has made 16 appearances this season, scoring once.
"It's the worst news. His ACL needs a reconstruction so that will put an end to his season," boss Mark Bonner told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire.
"We're probably looking at nine months (out), so it's a long road to recovery for him.
"It's a big loss for us as a team and really disappointing for him. He'll have an operation in the next couple of weeks."
Cambridge are at home to Port Vale on Saturday and hoping to end a run of four successive defeats in League One.
