Cardiff City have announced a football match to be played in the memory of club legend Peter Whittingham will take place later this year.
With the football league in a close-down period for the FIFA World Cup this autumn, the Bluebirds will welcome Aston Villa, for whom Whittingham played before joining Cardiff in 2007, on November 30. The game will also be used to officially launch the PW7 Foundation, established in memory of the mercurial midfielder. You can find out more about the foundation here.
The match against Steven Gerrard's outfit will kick off at 7.30pm, giving both sides the chance to prepare for the league's restart. It will also offer Cardiff City and its supporters an opportunity to celebrate the life of one of their favourite sons.
