Fowler, 32, was released by Liverpool at the end of last season and is now a free agent. He has been attracting Leicester and Cardiff City but a move to the Potteries looks so unlikely. Vale Chairman Bill Bratt said
"We've approached Robbie Fowler's agent to see whether he would be interested in playing for Port Vale.
We obviously can't afford to pay him what other clubs can but he's a very wealthy man anyway and we hope he may want to play for the pleasure of it.
I believe Cardiff are offering him £8000 a week and we can't match that.
But it's a chance for us as far as I'm concerned. We've asked the question"
Fowler is currently in Australia having talks with Sydney about becoming their marquee player. A marquee player is the one player per team whose wages dows not come out of the club's salary cap. It's a situation like that of David Beckham's at LA Galaxy and is designed to grow the league on a national and international scale.
