Where is Robbie Fowler now?
One of the most natural finishers in Premier League history, Liverpool FC legend Robbie Fowler called time on his distinguished career in 2012 after a three-year spell playing abroad in Thailand and Australia.
Coming up through the youth ranks at Liverpool, he made his professional debut in 1993 and went onto make 590 first-team appearances for eight different clubs winning the FA Cup, the League Cup twice, the UEFA Cup and the UEFA Super Cup during his time with the Reds.
He also enjoyed individual success during this period winning the PFA Young Player of the Year Award in 1995 and again in 1996.
On the international scene he represented the England senior side on 26 occasions and was a member of the 1996 and 2000 European Championships squads as well as the 2002 FIFA World Cup squad.
Whilst still an active player, Fowler invested his money in a number of properties which has given him considerable wealth in retirement and led to the famous chant from the Liverpool fans (to the tune of the Beatles Yellow Submarine) ‘We all live in a Robbie Fowler house’.
He has been involved in a number of business activities in retirement including racehorse ownership, a sports promotion company and a football academy. In 2021 Fowler and former team-mate Jamie Carragher merged their two academies and took over operational responsibilities at Liverpool’s former Melwood training ground. The site also hosts sporting hubs including swimming and gymnastics.
In 2013 he returned to Liverpool to assist with the coaching of the academy under-18 and under-21 sides with former Liverpool players Rob Jones and Steve McManaman and also spent time working as an official club ambassador.
In March 2019, Fowler participated in a TV series called ‘Harry’s Heroes’ which saw football manager Harry Redknapp take a number of ex-professionals on a journey to lose weight with the end goal of playing a team of ex Germany internationals.
Ironically, England won the game 4-2 which was the same scoreline as the 1966 World Cup Final.
In April 2019 Fowler was appointed in his first managerial role at Australian A-League side Brisbane Roar where he completely overhauled the squad and got them up to fourth in the league before the global COVID-10 crisis halted the season. He cut ties with the club in June 2020 after remaining in England where he had been self-isolating.
However, he wasn’t out of football management for long and was appointed head coach of Indian Super League side SC East Bengal on a two-year deal in October 2020. After managing just three wins out of 20 games in the club’s inaugural season, he left by mutual consent after just one year.
Following a part-time spell coaching at Oxford United, Fowler was appointed manager of Saudi Arabian second-tier side Al-Qadsiah FC in June 2023.
Unfortunately, despite winning six out of his first eight games and leading his side to second in the league table he was surprisingly sacked in October 2023.
In 2021 Fowler and former team-mate Jamie Carragher merged their two academies and took over operational responsibilities at Liverpool’s former Melwood training ground. The site also hosts sporting hubs including swimming and gymnastics.
