Newcastle will go back to the Premier League a year on from being relegated.
Last night’s 4-1 win at home to Preston secured them promotion from the Championship.
Their next goal is to win the league.
Speaking at a jubilant St James’ Park afterwards, captain Jamaal Lascelles says he hopes they can cap things off by finishing top of the second tier.
Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez won’t confirm whether he’ll still be in charge for their return after guiding the club back into the Premier League.
Benitez smiled when asked if he’d stay for next season and warned owner Mike Ashley that he’ll need to be backed in the transfer market next summer if he’s going to stay on.
