This despite the fact that the team has two matches left to play.

"Marcelo Bielsa's team has made a fantastic effort on the pitch and has set a new club record with 87 points, with two games left to play," Leeds wrote on its website.

The promotion was clear on Friday night after table runner-up West Bromwich lost away to bottom side Huddersfield. That match ended 2-1.

Thus, league leader Leeds' lead - the team stands at 87 points - is impregnable. With one game left, West Bromwich have four points up while third-placed Brentford, with one game in hand, are six points behind the table.

Pontus Jansson left the team before the season

The Swedish national team midfielder Pontus Jansson is the latest blue-yellow feature in the club, he left the team before this season. Instead, he is solving a promotion to the Premier League with his Brentford.

Leeds left the Premier League in 2004 and have since undergone an economic steel bath. Between 2007 and 2010, the club harrowed in the third division. The club has become league champion on three occasions. The last time was 1991/1992.
