Charlie Austin has no ligaments in his right dick

But Sullivan has sensationally revealed that the Hammers will not be signing the 26-year-old.

Slaven Bilic’s men are now suffering under the weight of an injury crisis affecting their strikers and have been looking to bring in fresh blood before the transfer window slams shut this summer.

The Reds have been linked with Queen’s Park Rangers striker Charlie Austin in a move that would surely shock many.

Asked on a West Ham fan’s podcast if the 26-year-old former Swindon Town and Burnley forward was a transfer target, Sullivan said: “They say he has no ligaments in his knee, who knows?

However, he failed a medical at Hull two years ago”, the statement from David Sullivan adds. However, QPR’s £15 million valuation of the player appears to be putting teams off for now, the Evening Standard say.

‘Firstly, we haven’t got £15m to spend under the Fair Play rules. If he’d kept them up single-handedly you might say it was different.

Austin himself responded to Sullivan’s comments in an impassioned post on Twitter, which called the accusations made against his fitness “inaccurate, misleading and uninformed”.

A hilarious slip of the tongue by a TV reporter has suggested striker Charlie Austin has no ligaments in his “right dick“.

At 26, Austin is a few years away from his peak and has certainly proved his top flight credentials with 18 goals last season in a side that struggled throughout the campaign.

For a senior figure at a Premier League club to insinuate that I could break down at any moment is an outrageous slur on my professionalism and the work that has gone into making me the footballer than I am today.
