Leicester City has earned promotion to the Premier League following Leeds United’s 4-0 loss to QPR. The Foxes’ promotion was sealed as their rivals’ defeat ensured they could not catch up in the standings. Just like in 2016 when Leicester famously won the Premier League title, players gathered for a watch-along and celebrated exuberantly following Leeds’ defeat.

Leicester’s return to the top flight comes after a season of strong performances, although they faced a challenge midway through the season with a run of poor results. Manager Enzo, who joined from Manchester City, played a crucial role in Leicester’s success, winning 15 of his first 17 games in charge. Despite key players departing after relegation from the Premier League, Leicester rebuilt successfully and is now set to return to the top flight.

Leicester fans will have the chance to celebrate throughout the weekend ahead of their match against Preston on Monday. A promotion party is planned at the King Power Stadium on May 4 when Leicester faces Blackburn. Meanwhile, Leeds faces the possibility of missing out on automatic promotion, with Ipswich Town now in a strong position to overtake them in the standings.
