Forward Oli McBurnie scored the promotion-winning goal for Hull City in the 96th minute of the playoff final against Middlesbrough, securing their place in the Premier League.

Hull City has achieved promotion to the Premier League thanks to a goal from Oli McBurnie in the 96th minute of the playoff final against Middlesbrough. The match concluded with a 1-0 scoreline, igniting jubilation among the team's supporters.
McBurnie has been a pivotal player for Hull City this season, scoring a total of 18 goals, 17 of which were in the regular league and one crucially in the promotion playoffs.
It is worth noting that last summer, UD Las Palmas considered signing the Scottish forward. However, a superior financial offer from Hull City tipped the scales, despite McBurnie's emotional ties to the Canary Islands club and the island itself. The player was even seen at the Estadio de Gran Canaria watching his former teammates.
At that time, UD Las Palmas opted to focus on other forwards such as Marc Cardona, Sory Kaba, Iván Cédric, and Jaime Mata, none of whom are currently part of the team's squad.
