Swansea will pay their respects to Besian Idrizaj on Saturday in what is the club`s first league fixture of the new season at the Liberty Stadium. The striker passed away over the summer at the age of just 22 following a heart attack while at home in Austria, leaving the club, players and fans alike shellshocked by his sudden death. The Swans will hold a minute`s silence before the home Championship clash against Preston and are also selling new edition black and white scarves to hold up during the tribute. A club spokesman told City`s official website: "The reason we`ve left the main minute`s silence until Saturday`s game is because Besian deserves a full Liberty Stadium to honour his short but successful life. "For Besian to look down and see thousands of Swans fans holding up their black and white scarves will be the perfect tribute. We know he`ll have a smile on his face."
