Incredible story! Frank Lampard leads Coventry to the Premier League for the first time in 25 years

On Friday, April 17, Coventry City travelled to Blackburn and achieved an unbelievable historic milestone.

Details: Coventry managed to secure a draw against the hosts, and that was enough to guarantee their promotion to the top flight of English football. The team has now collected 86 points after 43 matches and are 13 points clear of third place with four games remaining.

As a result, they cannot finish lower than second place and will play in the Premier League. Coventry were relegated from the Premier League in 2001 and now, 25 years later, they are returning to the top division.

Coventry appointed Lampard as manager on November 28, 2024. At the end of the 2024/25 season, Coventry City finished fifth in the Championship, but then fell short in the play-offs — this time, however, they have secured promotion without needing them.

Reminder: Tottenham lost 0-1 to Sunderland, which means they remain in the relegation zone and their chances of dropping further are increasing. A potential relegation of Tottenham from the top division could trigger an irreversible chain reaction, completely reshaping the club.
