  The naive fermiophobic scenario is unstable under radiative corrections, due
to the chiral-symmetry breaking induced by fermion mass terms. In a recent
study, the problem of including the radiative corrections has been tackled via
an effective field theory approach. The renormalized Yukawa couplings are
assumed to vanish at a high energy scale $\Lambda$, and their values at the
electroweak scale are computed via modified Renormalization Group Equations. We
show that, in case a fermiophobic Higgs scenario shows up at the LHC, a linear
collider program will be needed to accurately measure the radiative Yukawa
structure, and consequently constrain the $\Lambda$ scale.
