Chiefs announced last Thursday, during Fleurs' official memorial, after he was murdered in a hijacking incident, that they will retire the jersey number 26 in honour of his memory. Chiefs only had two jerseys retired previously, number 20 belonging to former captain Howard Freese and number 15, famously worn by legendary Doctor Khumalo, in honour of their contributions to the club.
