The sole leader of the second division of Spain, the club, on Sunday defeated the Tenerife team 2-0 away and, with eight games left until the end of the championship, secured a ticket to the highest Spanish league - "La Liga".

Jose Luis Mendilibar's team leads the second-place team by ten points, but the "Valladolid" players, unbeaten in 28 consecutive matches, have a larger lead of 26 points over "Ciudad Murcia", who are in fourth place.

"Valladolid" features several well-known players, such as former Madrid "Real" and Madrid "Atletico" defender Garcia Calvo, former Sevilla "Betis" forward Tote, and former Real Madrid youth academy goalkeeper Borja. However, experts believe that in the summer, in order not to drop out of "La Liga", "Valladolid" will need to significantly strengthen their team.

"Valladolid" is returning to the highest Spanish league after a three-year break.
