Fulham promoted to Premier League

Sporting Tribune

FULHAM are officially back in the big time after a brief one-year hiatus, according to Thesun.

A 3-0 win over Preston North End at Craven Cottage secured promotion to the Premier League – plus a whopping £200million windfall.

A shock defeat away at Derby on Good Friday, followed by Nottingham Forest’s win on Monday, meant the promotion party was briefly put on hold.

But an Aleksandar Mitrovic double, plus a Fabio Carvalho strike, ensured Fulham’s promotion back to the top-flight at the first time of asking.

Marco Silva’s side did it with four games to spare, and banked a mouthwatering sum of money in the process.

It will be a third season in the last five competing against the country’s elite.
