Anglo-Nigerian player Tammy Abraham, Egypt’s Ahmed Elmohamady, Ghana’s Albert Adomah and Ivory Coast’s Jonathan Kodjia have helped Aston Villa secure their promotion ticket to the Premier League next season.
Villa defeated Derby County 2-1 in Monday’s Championship play-off final to book their return to the English top-flight after a three-year absence.
Goals from Anwar El Ghazi and John McGinn were enough for Dean Smith's men at Wembley as Martin Waghorn's late effort stood as just a consolation for Derby.
Elmohamady provided an assist for El Ghazi’s opener in the 44th minute with his well-taken cross that was converted by the Dutch international.
