Austin, 21-years-old, was an Academy Graduate at Wolves, having been with the club since the age of 10.

While at Wolves, Austin has had loan spells with Kidderminster Harriers, Bradford City and Aberdeen. Austin is also a former England youth International.

Austin becomes the club’s fourth January signing alongside Sam Pearson, Logan Chalmers and Joe Hardy; all forwards apparently.

He signed on an 18 month deal on 28th January 2022 and is squad number 24. Austin scored his first goal for the club in a 2-0 win over Dunfermline seconds after coming on as a sub on 26th March 2022.

He has extended his contract at the end of season 2022/23. Presumably for at least one season. To date, Austin has made 44 appearances for the club, scoring 7 goals.
