"Fowler, 24, joins the league leaders for an undisclosed fee after scoring 19 goals in 25 appearances for the Spiders. The McDiarmid Park move marks the latest step in a remarkable journey for Fowler, who was playing for Beith Juniors in Scotland's sixth-tier just a few years ago, while working as a joiner. His goals in Ayrshire earned a move to Gulf United, then Dubai City, in the United Arab Emirates."
""I'm obviously delighted and it's a big opportunity for me," Fowler told club media. "We have a goal that we're all pushing towards and I'm excited to get going. "St Johnstone is a very well-run club and I wanted to be part of that. I feel like I'm ready for this step up and this challenge. "The gaffer has already been great with me. He has put his trust in me with this opportunity and that is massive.""
