JUST IN: Ex Chelsea Manager Frank Lampard Guides Coventry City to Historic Premier League Promotion After 25 Years—-Coventry City have secured promotion to the Premier League for the first time in 25 years, completing a remarkable turnaround under head coach Frank Lampard.

The Sky Blues confirmed their return to England’s top flight following a 1-1 draw against Blackburn Rovers, with a late equaliser sealing the crucial point needed to clinch promotion.

Lampard, who took charge of the club in 2024, has overseen an impressive rise, guiding Coventry from mid-table struggles to Championship leaders. His side’s consistency throughout the 2025/26 season saw them build an unassailable lead at the top of the table, ultimately securing automatic promotion.

The achievement marks a major milestone for Coventry City, who last played in the Premier League during the 2000/01 season. After years of setbacks, including spells in the lower divisions, the club has now completed a long journey back to the elite level of English football.

For Lampard, the promotion represents one of the biggest successes of his managerial career, silencing critics and reaffirming his credentials after previous stints with Chelsea and Everton.

Celebrations erupted among players and fans alike, as Coventry’s return to the Premier League signals a new chapter for the historic club.

JUST IN: Donald Trump Threatens NATO Exit After Rift Over Iran War—-US president Donald Trump brands alliance a “paper tiger” and lashes out at Britain as Keir Starmer defends NATO.

Donald Trump says he is strongly considering pulling the United States out of North Atlantic Treaty Organization after allies refused to support US military action against Iran.

In an interview with Britain’s Daily Telegraph, Trump described NATO as a “paper tiger” and said removing the US from the alliance was now “beyond reconsideration.” He accused European allies of failing to back Washington during the conflict with Iran and criticised their refusal to send warships to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump also took aim at Britain, mocking the state of its navy and criticising Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s focus on renewable energy.

“You don’t even have a navy,” Trump said. “All Starmer wants is costly windmills.”

Starmer responded by insisting Britain remains fully committed to North Atlantic Treaty Organization, calling it “the single most effective military alliance the world has ever seen.” He said his government would continue to act in Britain’s national interest despite mounting pressure from Washington.
