After a season in the ‘Championship’ (English Second Division), the Leicester certified this Friday mathematically his promotion to the Premier Leagueafter Queens Park Rangers’ 4-0 victory over Leeds United.
The men led by Enzo Maresca managed to climb up the category, to the First Division of English football, without playing their match of the day.
The ‘Championship’ consists of 46 dates and it is materially impossible for Leeds, with 90 points in 45 duels, to equal Leicester’s 94.
In England, two teams are promoted directly and from third to sixth they compete in the playoffs. At the moment, Leicester is the leader and once again a First Division team with 94 points in 44 games; Leeds, with 45 games, accumulates 90 points compared to Ipswich’s 89, which has 43 points and could surpass Leeds in the standings this weekend if it wins at home to Hull.
Without a doubt, another great chapter in Leicester’s history was written. Promotion to the 2024/25 Premier League has already been secured, an honor to the great Jamie Vardy, who at 37 years old was the team’s top scorer (16 goals in 33 games).
He was promoted, he was Premier champion, he was relegated and now he was promoted again. The captain who did not abandon the ship took him back to the English elite.
