Leeds push ahead with Elland Road expansion as city council to meet over plans to make stadium England's seventh-largest following Premier League promotion

Leeds are celebrating promotion back to the Premier League after their place in the Championship's top two was secured on Monday, with Daniel Farke's side winning 6-0 against Stoke City and then second-place Burnley beating third-place Sheffield United 2-1.

With the Whites can look ahead to next season back in the top flight, they have started working on their expansion plan for Elland Road. Per the Daily Mail, Leeds plan to expand their home ground from 38,000 to 56,500 seats, which would make it the seventh-largest football stadium in England. The report adds that the executive board of Leeds City Council are set to meet to discuss the expansion plans on Wednesday.

Leeds are expected to hold an open-top bus parade to celebrate their achievement in the coming days. Farke has confirmed that he is looking forward to the celebrations as he told reporters: "I just want beer after beer and champagne after champagne right now and don't bother me with football, we'll speak about it in a few days."

The newly promoted club will play their penultimate Championship game on April 28 against Bristol City at Elland Road. They are still fighting with Burnley for the title.
