Arsenal manager Unai Emery has confirmed that goalkeeper Petr Cech will start in the last game of his career.

Cech will be in goal for the Europa League final against Chelsea, as he bids farewell to a long and storied career in the game.

Emery has confirmed that a decision about who starts in goal has already been taken, with Bernd Leno missing out on a starting spot.

He said on the situation in goal to reporters: "(Cech's) here because he deserves to be here. His commitment to Arsenal is big. He was playing the last (Europa League) matches, perfect matches, with big performances. I want to enjoy with him this final in his career.

"I'm a privileged coach to be with him. We're going to use all our effort to win and to be together and enjoy this final together.

"I trust and believe in him. I can use him, I can use Leno, but above all I want to enjoy this with the players, and (what is) a special moment for some players.

"I spoke with Aaron Ramsey, who's injured, but it's the same with Petr Cech. I want to be with him (for) his last match, playing or not."
