Southampton has secured their return to the Premier League. The Saints clinched their promotion by defeating Leeds United 1-0 in the final match of the playoffs, held at Wembley Stadium in London.

According to Ednews the decisive moment came courtesy of a goal from 27-year-old forward Adam Armstrong, who netted the only goal of the match. This victory marks Southampton's return to the top flight after just one season in the Championship. Remarkably, this was the first playoff final in the club's history, adding a historic touch to their achievement.

Leeds United, on the other hand, will have to endure at least one more season in the Championship following this defeat.

With Southampton's promotion, the lineup for the 2023/24 Premier League season is now complete. Southampton joins Leicester City and Ipswich Town, who secured direct promotion earlier.

The upcoming season will see new faces as Sheffield United, Burnley, and Luton Town were relegated from the Premier League at the end of the last season. Southampton's return promises to add another layer of excitement to the highly anticipated Premier League campaign.
