Queens Park Rangers boss Harry Redknapp has revealed that he is keen to boost his attacking options ahead of the new season.

Charlie Austin is currently the only fit striker in Redknapp's squad at Loftus Road.

With the new Premier League campaign just weeks away, the R's manager is eager to add another forward to his ranks before the end of the summer.

"We're just a little bit short at the moment and we need to strengthen the squad a little bit really. That's the problem," he told Sky Sports News.

"We've got two games in two nights and I've got Charlie as the only fit striker. To be in this situation at this stage of the season, we really need to do something somewhere."

QPR return to pre-season action tonight when they travel to Southend United.
