Gary Neville has sent his best wishes to Leicester City on their successful promotion back to the Premier League in their first attempt, as the celebrations are in full swing.
Leicester’s return to the top flight was confirmed without them even stepping on the field, as Leeds United suffered a 4-0 defeat against Queens Park Rangers. This news set off jubilant scenes among the team and fans alike, with footage shared of the players celebrating at manager Enzo Maresca’s home.
The squad will mark their promotion on Monday night with a match against Preston North End, where a victory could see them crowned champions as well.
Neville, a pundit for Sky Sports, shared his thoughts on Leicester’s promotion to the Premier League, acknowledging their strong performance and stylish play throughout the season. Despite not closely following the Championship, Neville commended Leicester for their achievement and expressed his sympathies for teams like Sheffield United who were unable to secure promotion.
The season will conclude for Leicester with a home game against Blackburn, where a win could potentially see Rovers relegated to League One. The journey of Leicester City has been one of success and excitement as they make their return to the top flight.
