Fowler no Auusie
Former Liverpool and England striker Robbie Fowler has turned down an offer from Sydney FC.
The 32-year-old had been in negotiations with the New South Wales club over a possible move to play in the A-League in 2007-08 but he has chosen not to move Down Under.
Sydney FC chief executive officer George Perry said: 'Naturally, we're bitterly disappointed but we're satisfied we did everything we could to persuade Robbie to come to Sydney FC, Australia and the Hyundai A-League competition.
'Robbie was tremendously impressed by what he saw in Sydney but he has chosen to go elsewhere. We respect his decision and wish him and his family well.'
