Blackburn have agreed a pay-as-you-play deal with Robbie Fowler.

The former England striker has been training with Rovers all summer after he left Championship side Cardiff.

A deal had stalled when Fowler, 33, asked for a permanent contract, with Rovers only willing to do a short-term move.

Fowler had considered other options, including a possible move to Norway, but he has now accepted the temporary terms on offer at Ewood Park.

"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.
