Nottingham Forest will remain in the Championship, while Newcastle United will play in the Premier League next season.
Crystal Palace midfielder Yohan Cabaye has taken to social networking site Twitter to send a message to Newcastle United.
The France international, who played for Newcastle from 2011 until 2014 before moving to Paris Saint-Germain, is pleased to see the Magpies return to the Premier League as Championship winners.
Newcastle have won the Championship title with 94 points from 46 matches and have achieved automatic promotion to the English top flight.
Cabaye, who joined Palace from PSG in the summer of 2015 for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £10 million, has congratulated Rafael Benitez’s side on Twitter on winning the Championship title.
Meanwhile, Jermaine Jenas has stated on Twitter that his former club Newcastle deserved to return to the Premier League as Championship winners.
Jenas has also congratulated another of his former clubs, Nottingham Forest, on escaping the drop to League One on goal difference.
Forest have finished the season 21st in the Championship table with 51 points from 46 points.
