Brighton & Hove Albion FC Earns Promotion to the Premier League
Brighton & Hove Albion FC has earned promotion to the Premier League after a seven-year absence. The club’s last appearance in the top flight was during the 2011-12 season.
Manager Chris Hughton, who previously managed Newcastle and Norwich City in the Premier League, is looking forward to leading Brighton back to the top level of English football.
“It’s been a long journey and there’s a lot of emotions attached to it,” Hughton said after Brighton’s 2-1 victory over Wigan Athletic earned them promotion. “The players have been excellent all season and they’ve deserved it.”
Albion captain Bruno Saltor spoke about the club’s achievement. “I think every player that has been here this season deserves to be up there with us,” Saltor said. “It’s not just about me or any individual, it’s about the whole team.”
Promotion to the Premier League is a significant accomplishment for Brighton, which is located in a relatively small city on England’s south coast. The team will now compete against some of the biggest clubs in the world, including Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea.
