QPR striker Austin drops holiday plans for England chance

QPR striker Charlie Austin is hoping for a first England call-up next month.

The 25-year-old QPR striker, who has netted 17 Premier League goals so far, has told girlfriend Bianca Parker they can't have a summer holiday because he wants to be ready to pack a bag for wherever Roy Hodgson wants him to go.

"He has not booked any holidays because he is so desperate to put on an England shirt," teammate Bobby Zamora revealed.

"If Harry Kane goes with the under-21s it could free up a space. Hopefully Charlie will get in there because he's been top drawer all season."
