After languishing in the lower tiers of the football pyramid, Wrexham are finally in the Sky Bet Championship - a sudden rise that nobody expected to happen so fast.

In this article, Sports News Blitz’s Dylan Easton takes a look at how the club have managed their success and the challenges that lie ahead of them.

After 42 years, Wrexham A.F.C have been promoted to the EFL Championship, with Premier League football only one step closer now.

The club confirmed second place in League One on the 26th of April following a 3-0 home win against promotion rivals Charlton Athletic, with Birmingham City taking the title of champions.

Goals from both Ollie Rathbone and Sam Smith in the first half helped stun Charlton, and a second goal for Smith in the second half confirmed promotion for the Welsh side.
