Chris Ramsey believes Charlie Austin remaining at Queens Park Rangers will benefit the club.
Austin, 26, was linked with a move away from Loftus Road all summer with a number of Premier League clubs interested in the forward.
Despite missing out on the potential £15m price tag that was put on him, Ramsey thinks QPR have more to gain financially if he stays due to the goals he can provide in their attempts for an immediate Premier League return.
Austin scored 18 goals last year in a QPR team that finished bottom of the Premier League. This season he's started the campaign well, with four goals in his first five games.
The striker is now looking to be rewarded for his loyalty with new contract which will double his wages. He has a year remaining on his deal and could walk away even if QPR are promoted.
Could it hamper his chances of making the England squad?
Staying with QPR may have ruined his chances of making the England team anytime soon. The former Poole Town forward had been on the fringes of the side but without Premier League football it is likely he be will overlooked.
There's still a chance Austin may move away from QPR in January. According to reports, Manchester United made a late enquiry on deadline day in an attempt to boost their forward-line.
Crystal Palace also made an approach but Austin turned down the opportunity to team up with Alan Pardew in favour of a season in the Championship.
Leicester City's £10m offer was the only firm bid QPR received during the window, though there was also interest from West Ham United, Newcastle United, Bournemouth, Aston Villa, Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur.
Austin will hoping to hit over 15 goals for the fifth season running. After moving to Burnley in 2011 from Swindon, he was prolific with 41 goals in 82 games. At QPR he has so far scored 39 in 71.
