Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech is set to release a charity single next week in collaboration with Queen legend Roger Taylor.
The former Chelsea man, who won the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup with the Stamford Bridge club, will retire at the end of this season after a 19-year career.
The former Czech Republic captain has been working on a self-written song, titled 'That's Football', and has enlisted the help of Taylor for the single.
Taylor is the drummer for Queen, famous for tracks like Bohemian Rhapsody and We Will Rock You.
Cech announced the pending new single in a tweet on Friday, joking, 'Ed Sheeran, Stormzy, & others' should watch out because 'there's a new artist in town'.
The Arsenal 'keeper is raising money for the Willow Foundation, which organises special days for seriously ill young adults.
Cech has previously recorded covers of well-known rock songs by the likes of Foo Fighters, Nirvana and Stereophonics and uploaded them to his Youtube channel, which has over 50,000 subscribers.
The 36-year-old has been a keen drummer since he and Carlo Cudicini jammed together in 2011, after the goalkeeping duo played Rock Band together on Play Station.
When asked about potential plans to start a band after his playing career in 2017, Cech revealed: "No matter when you start, there is always a possibility to learn something.
"It's all about football and when I win a few more trophies, then I can think about music."
