Charlie Austin: Swindon re-sign ex-Burnley, QPR, Saints & WBA striker

Swindon Town have re-signed striker Charlie Austin on a free transfer.

The 33-year-old ex-Burnley, Queens Park Rangers, Southampton & West Bromwich Albion goal poacher has returned to the County Ground almost 12 years after leaving the Robins for Turf Moor.

Since leaving QPR for a second time at the end of the 2021-22 season, Austin has been playing down under with Robbie Fowler's former club Brisbane Roar.

But he agreed a mutual termination of his contract earlier this month.

That leaves him free to make the move from the Australian A League back to Wiltshire, subject both to English Football League approval and international clearance, and he has agree a deal to the end of the season.
