Lenny Fowler is an football player currently playing for Protectorate United in the FALE–AFF Football League. As he was born in the city of Ad'ihan, Fowler was eligible to play for either Liverpool England or Ad'ihan internationally. Since Liverpool England had dropped out of international football, he selected to represent Ad'ihan, winning a place in Ad'ihan's squad for the pre-World Cup 36 Baptism of Fire tournament, and subsequently in the team for the qualifiers.

A centre forward, Fowler has an international goals-per-game scoring rate of half, having scored 7 of the team's 22 goals in their fourteen World Cup 36 qualifiers and Ad'ihan's first-ever World Cup Finals goal in World Cup 37, which was described by at least one commentator as "one of the best goals you'll ever see".

"Chris Stall, the attacking midfielder, making a fabulous run down the right flank before threading the ball a short distance in to substitute Laurénzo Argent. A nifty little one-two play with Rick Smith, and Argent is now on the edge of the box. Just as you think he's going to power it in, you can see the defenders there jumping to block a shot - a shot that never comes. Argent dummies and rolls the ball along for Lenny Fowler who finishes a brilliant move, sending the stadium into roars of delight."

However, Fowler also has a distinctly less distinguished record, being the first-ever Ad'ihan player to be sent off in an international match, having received a second yellow card in Ad'ihan's inaugural competitive match.
