All summer Fowler has been training with Rovers.

Flower asked for a permanent contract with Rovers but only willing to do a short - term move but the deal had stalled.

So another option was a possible move to Norway but he renounced that because for the moment he accepted temporary terms at Edwood Park

Here is what he declared :

"We have agreed in principle a three-month pay-as-you-play deal and we hope to have it tied up by the end of the week," said Blackburn chairman John Williams.

"If we go ahead on that basis and get it registered then if the manager wants him he would be able to be in the squad against Arsenal on Saturday."
