Charlie Austin set for Newcastle United switch

Austin to seal Magpies transfer?

Charlie Austin set for Newcastle United switch

05 July 2015 - 07:15

Queens Park Rangers striker Charlie Austin is poised to make his way to Newcastle United during the summer transfer window.

  • Chelsea ready new contract for star midfielder
  • Chelsea make first move to sign Xabi Alonso
  • The talented striker has been tipped to leave the R's following their relegation from the Premier League.

    However, the R's have relented that they will not offload the former Clarets star unless their asking price of £15m is met.

    Reports now state that Magpies boss Steve McClaren is ready to pay £15m to bring the 25-year-old back to top-flight in the current transfer window.

    Austin's 18 league goals were not sufficient to keep the R's in the Premier League last season.
