Leeds United head coach Daniel Farke was delight and relieve to be promote to the Premier League after Monday’s 6-0 Championship thrashing of Stoke City in the 44th game.

Leeds secured a 6-0 win at Elland Road over Stoke and then waited for Burnley’s 2-1 win at Sheffield United to confirm their promotion to the Premier League at the same time, but the title will still have to be fought over the remaining two games.

Farke admits the toughest เล่น UFABET ผ่านมือถือ สะดวกทุกที่ ทุกเวลา part is mentally, having been relegated from the Premier League in the 2022-23 season and missing out on promotion in a heartbreaking way in 2023-24, both by falling out of the top two and losing in the play-off final.

“I work for a club with a lot of passion, probably the most in the country. It’s not an easy job because you’re not just looking after the players. You’re looking after the whole organisation, even the press and the fans.”

“Recovering from relegation is a tough job because you have to deal with everything, the frustrations and the transfers.”

“We had a great season (last season), got 90 points and then lost the final (play-off) at Wembley very painfully. We had to start again because we lost a lot of important players. We’re work under a lot of constraints.”

“It took a lot of energy but we did it in the end. I’m really proud of all the players. It means a lot to wear this shirt and we’ve set a great example and really deserve to be back in the Premier League.

“As for the celebration of promotion to the Premier League. Farke said: “Normally I celebrate quietly, with a piece of cake and a cup of coffee on the sofa. But if it’s a big celebration like this, believe me, I’ll celebrate wildly. I’ll be the first to climb onto the table.”
