The Yorkshire club ended their 16-year absence from the English topflight after they finished top of the Championship table with games to spare after WestBrom lost to Huddersfield.
Patrick Bamford and Pablo Hernandez are some of the key players that starred for the team with 16 and 9 goals from the duo, Argentine tactician Marcelo Bielsa led the team to automatic promotion in his second season despite an earlier scandal in his first season at the club that saw the club fined for what was dubbed ‘Spygate’, but reports claimed the manager had paid the fine in full sum from his pocket. In the month of July, he was named the Championship manager of the year 2020 and the manager of the month for the month of July.
