Enzo Marescara has guilded Leicester City back to the Premier league.
Leicester City has successfully achieved automatic promotion to the Premier League, confirmed by Queens Park Rangers’ unexpected 4-0 victory over Leeds United at Loftus Road.
This significant win for QPR undermined Leeds’ promotion chances, as they remain four points adrift of Leicester in second place.
The Foxes, managed by Enzo Maresca, have secured their return to the top tier of English football at their first attempt since being relegated last season.
They currently lead the Championship with 94 points garnered from 44 games, showcasing a commendable performance throughout the season.
Leicester City celebrates their upcoming Premier League promotion under Maresca, who previously assisted Pep Guardiola at Manchester City before landing the coaching job with the Foxes.
Leicester’s remaining fixtures include an away match against Preston and a concluding home game against Blackburn on May 4.
Leeds United EPL promotion hopes hit the rocks after QPR victory.
The defeat at QPR places Leeds in a precarious position, only one point ahead of third-place Ipswich Town.
Ipswich, with three games left to Leeds’ one, could overtake them if they secure a win in their upcoming matches against Hull City or Coventry. If Ipswich manages to outscore Leeds in the remaining fixtures, Leeds will face the playoffs for a shot at promotion.
QPR’s victory not only staved off Leeds’ promotion hopes but also ensured their own survival in the Championship under the management of Marti Cifuentes, who took charge in October replacing Gareth Ainsworth.
Before Cifuentes’ tenure, QPR was languishing near the bottom after six consecutive defeats but has now managed to secure safety with one game left in the season.
Goalscorers for QPR included Ilias Chair, Lucas Andersen, Lyndon Dykes, and Sam Field, whose efforts solidified the team’s status in the league for another season and played a pivotal role in reshaping the promotion landscape.
