Transfer gossip: Whites linked with Stanley youngster, Austin speculation continues

A round-up of the latest transfer speculation involving Fulham and QPR….

Fulham are vying with Arsenal for the signing of Accrington Stanley midfielder Jake Windass, The Sun claims, while speculation continues over Charlie Austin’s future.

Windass, the 21-year-old, son of former Hull striker Dean Windass, is also apparently being tracked by Brighton, Hull and Portsmouth.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mirror believes an injection of funds at Bournemouth could lead to them bidding for QPR striker Austin.

An American investor has bought a 25% stake in the Cherries and the report claims Austin – who made his name at Bournemouth’s non-League neighbours Poole Town – could be a target for Eddie Howe as part of a January spending spree.
