Ipswich Town win promotion to Premier League for second time in three years

Ipswich Town have secured promotion to the Premier League after winning the Championship, returning to the top flight for the 2026-27 season. This marks their second promotion from the second tier in just three years, having previously earned promotion in 2023 before suffering relegation.

Watch the highlights:

The club's return to the Premier League raises questions about whether they are better prepared this time around for the challenges of top-flight football. The team's consistency in reaching the Championship's promotion places demonstrates the quality Kieran McKenna has built at Portman Road.

Ipswich will now prepare for their second Premier League campaign in three years, looking to establish themselves among English football's elite. The club's management faces the task of strengthening the squad to compete at a higher level this time.

The promotion completes a remarkable turnaround for a club that was playing in League One just a few years ago. With Parick back at home in Suffolk, the challenge now is ensuring the team can sustain their Premier League status and build on the momentum of their return to the top flight. The upcoming transfer window will be crucial as the club looks to assemble a squad capable of surviving among England's elite clubs.
