Manchester United’s David De Gea had the chance to match Cech in his club’s rearranged fixture with Bournemouth on Tuesday but he conceded a late goal in the 3-1 win at Old Trafford.
That means De Gea ends the season with 15 clean sheets, along with Manchester City’s Joe Hart and Leicester City’s Kasper Schmeichel, and 33-year-old Cech clinched the prize for the fourth time in his career.
Czech Republic international Cech, who joined Arsenal last summer, won the award three times during his timeat Chelsea — in 2005, 2010 and 2014, when he shared it with Arsenal’s Wojciech Szczesny.
The award was introduced in the 2004-05 season, when Cech kept 21 clean sheets, which has only been matched by Manchester United’s Edwin van der Sar since.
