In the last league round, Ipswich needed just one point to secure promotion. All matches in the final round kicked off at 1.30pm.

Leeds in 3rd place was dependent on a Huddersfield victory, as well as winning themselves over Southampton.

Neither happened. Leeds lost 1–2 to Southampton and thus have to go into the playoffs.

Thus has previously Solskjær’s assistantMcKenna was Solskjær’s assistant at Manchester United from 2018-2021. Kieran McKenna led Ipswich back to the Premier League for the first time in 22 years. The club was relegated in the 2001/02 season. Since then, the club has largely been far from returning to the top division.

Ipswich finished a point behind Leicester, who secured promotion in the penultimate league round. Leicester lost 0–2 in their last match against Blackburn.

It is also the first time since 2012 that a team has moved straight up from League One to the Premier League two seasons in a row. Southampton managed the same feat back then.

Ipswich join Leicester City in the Premier League. Leeds, Southampton, West Bromwich and Norwich will play a playoff for the last Premier League place.

Ipswich won the league in the 1961/62 season, and came second in both the 1980/81 and 1981/82 seasons.
