Fowler has scored 162 league goals in 312 starts, in total he's scored over 200 goals, played in the Premiership all his career and last season in his last year back at Liverpool he was involved in over 20 games scoring 7 goals. He has played League Cup, Premiership and Champions League football in the last year. He is of course a former England international as well.
Nicknamed 'GOD' by the Anfield fans Fowler is a Premiership legend. He once scored a hat trick against Arsenal in 4 mins 33 seconds, a Premiership record that still stands.
"The most important thing for me is that when you look at Cardiff you see an ambitious club and a situation that is going to give me a real challenge," Fowler said.
"I want to play regular football and achieve things, and Cardiff offer me that opportunity.
"During my time at Liverpool over the last season I wasn't used as much as I would have liked, but hopefully I can get back to week-in, week-out games with Cardiff.
"As a striker, you need that in order to be properly sharp in front of goal.
"People have said I'm past my best and I've heard other sorts of comments like that.
"But they forget I'm still only 32... and that's not so old. I have had injuries, but I'm in good shape again, I'm raring to go and I can't wait to get playing for Cardiff.
"I'm really happy to be joining. I'm coming to hopefully help Cardiff with a real push at promotion next season."
Fowler is aware of wehat happened to City last season and is hoping that the team will become more consistent this coming season.
"You look at last season and note the brilliant start Cardiff had, only for them to then drop away a bit," Fowler continued.
"They had a big run of games where they couldn't get a win and goals dried up a bit.
"I would like to think I can keep the goals coming this season and the team can get a bit more consistent in terms of results.
"But it's not just about me, I must stress that. There is a good group of players at Cardiff already and I'm looking forward to supplementing the squad and playing my part in any success we might have.
"If I can pass on a bit of my own experience in big games to the younger players at the club, then of course I will be delighted to do that."
