Petr Cech will release a charity single with Queen legend Roger Taylor to mark the end of his playing career.
The Arsenal goalkeeper and Chelsea legend will hang up his gloves at the age of 36 when the season ends later this month.
After 15 glittering years in the Premier League, the part-time drummer intends to go out with a bang.
He announced on Twitter that he will release his debut single next week, featuring one of rock music’s true greats.

Taylor, 69, was the man behind Freddie Mercury, Brian May and John Deacon as Queen became one of the most famous acts of all time.
The single will be released in aid of UK-based charity Willow, who provide special days for seriously ill people between the age of 16 and 40.
Cech tweeted: “Watch out Ed Sheeran, Stormzy, & others, there’s a new artist in town.
“To mark my retirement the legendary Roger Taylor and myself thought it would be fun to do a song to raise money for the wonderful @Willow_Fdn. out next week on Virgin Records. #thatsfootball.”
