Petr Cech announced he was retiring from football in January, leading to several legends of the game to pay their respects to one of the Premier League’s finest professionals.Cech has been a monumental figure between the sticks for both Chelsea and Arsenal – winning all their is to win in club football and picking up the most clean sheets (202) in the division’s history along the way.
2Cech remarkably started his career as a striker for Skoda Plzen, now Viktoria Plzen, but changed to goalkeeper when he was seven years old.He then joined Chmel Blsany in 1999 and made his Czech First League debut when he was 17.After impressing at Blsany, Cech signed for Sparta Prague when he was 18 and made an instant impact in the capital – breaking the record for the longest amount of time without conceding a goal (855 minutes).However, it was at his next club, Rennes, where Cech really emerged in the spotlight.

Full commentary from the Europa League showdown will be live on talkSPORT2, with our coverage getting underway at 6pm.It was only a matter of time before a huge club in Europe came calling for him.The then assistant coach of Rennes, Michel Sorin, recalled: “He was a phenomenon. He was great, he had exceptional flexibility. He had everything and he was a hard worker.While the Head of Chelseas goalkeeping department, Christophe Lollichon, said: In two years, he had become a legend around Rennes.“He was a young man, very curious and who had a thirst for performance. There is not a training session where I remember seeing him go backwards on the pitch. He was thirsty for knowledge and discovery.Petr Cech's career in England
Chelsea (2004 – 2015)– Premier Leagues (2004-05, 2005-06, 2009-10, 2014-15)– Four FA Cups (2006-07, 2008-09, 2009-10, 2011-12)– Three League Cups (2004-05, 2006-07, 2014-15)– One Champions League (2011-12)– One Europa League (2012-13)– Two Community Shields (2005-06, 2009-10)Arsenal (2015 – 2019)– One FA Cup (2016-17)– Two Community Shields (2015-16, 2017-18)So good were his performances that Sir Alex Ferguson was drawn to see him in action himself and while he didn’t sign him, it taught him a lessonI went to see Petr Cech when he was at Rennes, Ferguson said, as quoted by theMail.He was 19 at the time and I said to myself, He’s too young.But Chelsea bought him and he’s never been out of the team. So age doesn’t matter when you have the ability of a goalkeeper like Petr Cech or, we know, David de Gea has.Cech’s success in the game after joining Chelsea speaks for itself, but now that his 20 year career nears its conclusion it is fitting he gets to return to the club which acted as the springboard to his success.Live Sport on talkSPORT
