​Southampton expecting Austin return after international break

Southampton boss Ronald Koeman expects Charlie Austin to be fit after the international break.

The £4m striker saw his promising start to life at St Mary's curtailed by a hamstring injury against Bournemouth last week.

"The latest update about Charlie is that he will be out for another 10 days to two weeks," said Koeman.

"With the schedule of the season that means he will be fit after the international break."
