Newcastle United will make a fresh move for QPR forward Charlie Austin in January according to the Daily Telegraph.
Magpies boss Steve McClaren made a move for the Loftus Road star over the summer but was unwilling to meet the Championship side’s £15m valuation.
The 26-year-old striker scored 18 goals in his debut season in the Premier League, an impressive total when consider QPR finished rock bottom of the table, and has continued to impress since the West London side’s relegation to the second tier.
