Chelsea goalkeeper Jamal Blackman and Tottenham Hotspur-owned Queens Park Rangers winger Jack Clarke have sent messages to Leeds United on Twitter.

Blackman, who had a loan spell at Leeds from Chelsea in 2018, is pleased to see the Whites clinch automatic promotion to the Premier League.

Clarke, who started his professional club football career at Leeds before moving to Tottenham and is now on loan at QPR, is also overjoyed that the Whites are back in the Premier League.

Huddersfield Town’s 2-1 win against West Bromwich Albion at home in the Championship this evening means that Leeds will be in the top flight of English football next season.

It is the first time that the West Yorkshire outfit will be in the Premier League since 2004.

Deserved promotion

Leeds have been the best team in the Championship this season, and the Whites have deservedly clinched automatic promotion to the Premier League.

Marcelo Bielsa’s side came close to finishing in the top two of the Championship table last season, but they have done the job this time around.
