Charlie Austin is back
CHARLIE Austin has returned to QPR, agreeing a two-year deal.
Austin spent the second half of the 2020/21 season on loan at Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium and had a significant impact.
His eight goals in 19 starts helped catapult QPR from 19th in the table to a ninth-place finish in the Championship.
Now the 31-year-old is looking to build on that in the coming years.
“I am really pleased to get it done and to be able to continue my journey here,” he said.
“With the way we finished the season – and how I feel about the club hasn’t changed – I wanted to be part of it and as soon as the opportunity was available I wanted to get this done as soon as possible.”
