Elland Road will be hosting Premier League football next season as Leeds United are back in the big time.
The Whites have won 26 out of 44 Championship games this term, losing nine, and it was enough to secure them a return to the English top-flight with two games to spare.
West Bromwich Albion’s 2-1 loss at Huddersfield Town yesterday ensured that Leeds sealed automatic promotion, and a point or Brentford failing to get a win at Stoke City today is all they need to be declared 2019-20 English Championship winners.
Boss Marcelo Bielsa has been crucial in ensuring one of English football’s sleeping giants finally returned to where they belong, and here is how former Leeds centre-back Lucas Radebe reacted to the Argentine’s and players’ achievements on Twitter:
After long 16yrs finally the wait is over our dreams have come true bak in the premier league come on @LUFC Congratulations to ElLoco an the Boys absolutely proud.#MOT
