Gżira United and Hibernians will organise a testimonial for their former attacking midfielder Andrew Cohen on December 13, the Premier League clubs announced.
The match will be a fitting farewell to the 40-year-old who retired from professional football at the end of last season following a trophy-laden career that saw him make over 400 appearances in the Premier League.
The match is going to be held at the Tony Bezzina Stadium on December 13 with kick-off time set at 3pm.
The Kalkara-born Cohen came through the Hibernians Academy and was promoted to the senior team in 1999.
With the Paolites, Cohen enjoyed a very successful 19-year career which saw him win the Premier League title four times in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2017, the FA Trophy four times in 2006, 2007, 2012, and 2013 and was named MFA Player of the Year three times in 2005, 2006 and 2015.
In 2017, Cohen left Hibernians to join Gżira United, and with the Maroons, he was named the MFA Player of the Year in 2018.
Following his retirement, Cohen remained in the game as he entered into coaching and is currently the assistant coach of Gżira United coach Darren Abdilla.
