1) Charlie Austin – Queens Park Rangers to Southampton – £4million
With the winner at Old Trafford, he’s probably already repaid the £4million that Southampton spent on him.
Yes Southampton got Charlie Austin for just £4m. Unbelievable signing and easily the transfer of the window.
This isn’t a normal Championship striker they’ve signed from Queens Park Rangers. This is a guy who netted 18 goals in the Premier League last season in a very poor and eventually-relegated side.
He will flourish at Saints with better players around him and if he gets game-time, he could be a late shock in Roy Hodgson’s European Championship squad.
Great value for money for a great player.
Southampton secure signing of the January transfer window.
So there are our Five Transfers of January.
Who did we miss out?
Comment your thoughts!
