Burnley forward Jay Rodriguez has taken to Twitter to send a message to West Bromwich Albion after Slaven Bilic’s side clinched automatic promotion to the Premier League.
West Brom played out a 2-2 draw with Queens Park Rangers at The Hawthorns in the Championship on Wednesday evening.
The result means that Bilic’s side have finished second in the league standings this season with 83 points from 46 matches.
The Baggies have ended up two points ahead of third-placed Brentford and will play in the Premier League next season.
Rodriguez left West Brom for Premier League club Burnley in the summer of 2019 for an transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £5 million.
The 30-year-old England international forward has congratulated the Baggies on Twitter on getting back to the Premier League.
