Redknapp: 'Austin can score 20 goals'

Queens Park Rangers boss Harry Redknapp believes that Charlie Austin is capable of scoring 20 goals in the Premier League in a season.

The 25-year-old has notched seven goals so far in the season for the R's, including netting in all of their three wins in the campaign.

Redknapp has also revealed that the club have received no interest in the striker, quashing reports linking him with a move away from the club.

He told reporters: "He's a player that needs to get 20 goals-a-season. He is capable of that, the way he's playing. He's a great lad and I'm sure he is very happy here.

"We have not had any enquiries from anybody else as far as I know. He's only played a dozen games in the Premier League, there is still a long way to go.

"He knows that. He's improving week by week. He is full of confidence and is happy here."

QPR face Swansea City in the Premier League later today.
