Agent cools Swindon exit talk for Newcastle, Forest target Austin

The agent of Swindon Town striker Charlie Austin has played down talk of a move away.

Newcastle, Cardiff and Nottingham Forest are leading a long list of clubs rumoured to be interested in the forward's services after he burst onto the scene last term, netting 20 goals following his October arrival from Poole Town.

But agent David Threlfall has told skysports.com: "There is always going to be interest in someone like Charlie, especially after the season he has just had.

"While speculation is always flattering, Charlie is fully focused on returning to pre-season training and is looking forward to the season ahead."
