QPR boss Harry Redknapp is convinced Charlie Austin can break into the full England squad.
The 25-year-old was not included in Roy Hodgson's latest England squad yesterday but if Austin can maintain his form, Redknapp believes a call-up will not be far away.
"Charlie's improving and if he keeps scoring goals there's no reason why he can't play for England in the future," said Redknapp, whose team host Manchester City today.
"He's had it hard, he used to get up early in the morning to do bricklaying in the middle of winter and I think he realises how fortunate he is. He loves it and he deserves it."
