Teenage sensation Mary Fowler is poised to become the latest Matildas player to shift to Europe after agreeing to terms on a deal with French club Montpellier.

Fowler joined Adelaide United in the W-League this season but is set to be granted an immediate release to take up the opportunity with the two-time Division 1 Feminine champions, which is expected to be officially confirmed in the coming days, according to sources with knowledge of the deal.

The talented striker, who turns 17 next month, has scored three goals in seven appearances in her maiden W-League campaign for the Reds. She has been a shining light for a team struggling at the foot of the table, with her technique and intelligent movement constantly causing issues for opposition teams.

Fowler's pending departure is a sign that it won't be just experienced or established Matildas who make the move to Europe but the W-League's very best young prospects as well.
