    Sounds like a medical thing to me.
    The 27-year-old, who was given a rousing reception by City's fans when he appeared as a late substitute for Leeds in United's 2-1 defeat at Maine Road, agreed personal terms on a four-and-a-half-year deal on Tuesday and spent most of Wednesday undergoing stringent fitness tests.

    Fowler, who had agreed in principle a deal worth a reported £35,000-a-week, only returned to the Leeds first team last month after a lengthy lay-off with a hip injury.


    Even tho his agent claims it wasnt, it looks sus.

    Kevin Keegan is threatening to quit as manager of Manchester City after the Robbie Fowler transfer fell through. It's believed City tried to change the terms of the contract so that Leeds would only be granted a down payment of 2 million quid with more cash trickling down according to the number of appearances the injury stricken striker made. The clubs had agreed a 7 million pound fee while Fowler had sorted out his personal details and passed a medical. Fowler's now back in the Leeds squad for the West Brom game at Elland Road tomorrow.
    Keegan is right to go nuts if that's true.

    Has been linked in a few of the less reputable papers that Liverpool are considering coming in for him.

    The deal is back on apparently. Robbie Fowler is absolutely, definitely, emphatically signing for Manchester City today. Maybe.

    I still think it's a good move for him. Leeds might be able to keep Woodgate if this finally goes through.
