Leeds United are back in the Premier League after winning the Championship with 100 points.

Daniel Farke‘s men narrowly missed out last season, losing in the play-off final to Southampton.

But they made sure there would be no play-off heartbreak this time as they stormed the division, which given they lost players like Archie Gray, is a great achievement.

Preparations for the top-flight will now begin, but before all that, it’s party time in Leeds.

There is set to be a trophy parade to celebrate, and here is all you need to know.

Leeds United trophy parade: What has been said?

There was speculation that Leeds would replace Farke, but he has been publicly backed by the club’s chairman Paarag Marathe.

Speaking after they were crowned champions, he said: “I’m very excited to run it back with Daniel and collaborate with him.

“I’m under no illusions that it is going to be easy. The past two seasons the three promoted teams came straight back down but we have something they don’t have, we have Daniel Farke first of all.”

When asked if he had any question marks over the manager, Marathe added: “I have ended the speculation. He is my man.”

“Together, we are going to build the best squad we can, with every penny we are allowed to spend to be competitive in the Premier League.

“We are going to attack the transfer market, and it’s something I’m really excited about.”

He also hailed Farke’s calming influence around the club, continuing: “He is such a calming force – presence would be an understatement.

“He really has a superpower that way. He told you all he was 100% confident we were going to the Prem after the draw with Swansea, and he believed it, and I love him for it.

“He has that conviction and belief and I told him privately that I was looking forward to moving forward together, but I didn’t feel like it was my time to speak because someone wanted to put out a rumour.”
