QPR star Austin in line for England call

Charlie Austin is reportedly in the mix for an England call-up this summer.

The Daily Mail suggests that Three Lions boss Roy Hodgson could call on the QPR striker for the Republic of Ireland friendly on June 7 and the Euro2016 qualifier against Slovenia on June 14.

Austin, who has 17 Premier League goals this season, will be brought in to replace Tottenham young gun Harry Kane who is set to play for the U21s at the European Championships in the Czech Republic.
