Premier League goalkeeping legend Petr Cech joins ice hockey's Belfast Giants in his post-retirement career - and Matt Petgrave's Sheffield Steelers are his first opponents

Petr Cech has sealed a move to Ice Hockey's Elite League after agreeing a loan deal to the Elite Ice Hockey League's Belfast Giants from Oxford City Stars.

Cech is arguably the greatest ever goalkeeper in the Premier League era, holding the record for the most clean sheets, winning four league titles and being voted into the Hall of Fame.

He endured the greatest portion of his success at Chelsea, before later sealing a loan move to Arsenal, spending four years in north London before finally hanging up his gloves in 2019.
