Robbie Fowler will be at Anfield for at least another season after agreeing to sign a new one-year contract with Liverpool.

The former England striker has scored four league goals since returning to the club in January on a six-month contract.

He was signed by Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez after spending four years away from Anfield with Manchester City and Leeds.

Benitez said: "This is fantastic news. Robbie has done really well and he deserves this.

"He has scored some vital goals for us and he has worked really hard. I am delighted to have him with us for next season. He is an important member of our squad."

Fowler is expected to put pen to paper next week.
