Adam Davies (born March 27, 1987 in Peterborough, England) is an English-born Welsh footballer, currently playing for Cambridge United in the Conference National.

Defender Davies began his career as a schoolboy at Peterborough United before switching to Cambridge as a trainee. He made his first team debut, while still a trainee, on August 29, 2004 when he replaced Stevland Angus as a second-half substitute in Cambridge's 1-0 win away to Boston United in the Football League Trophy. His league debut came on September 10, 2004 when he replaced Justin Walker as a late substitute in the 1-0 win at home to Bristol Rovers. He made one further league appearance, again as a substitute, as Cambridge struggled in the league and were eventually relegated to the Conference at the end of the season.

Davies signed his first professional contract with Cambridge in November 2005.
