Southampton are reportedly considering a summer move for Queens Park Rangers striker Charlie Austin.
The 25-year-old has less than 18 months remaining on his current terms and is believed to be in talks with the club regarding a new deal.
Due to the uncertainty of Austin's future, Southampton have placed the striker on their wanted list for this summer's transfer window, according to Goal.com.
It is believed that the Saints do not expect injured Jay Rodriguez to sign a new deal at the club, and manager Ronald Koeman is keen to strengthen the team's forward options.
Reports have claimed that officials at St Mary's will make a bid for Austin regardless of whether QPR stay in the Premier League or suffer relegation at the end of the season.
