Nigerian goalkeeper, Carl Ikeme has congratulated his Wolverhampton Wanderers teammates for their qualification back to the English Premier League.

Ikeme said his teammates stood focused on their dream to get back to the EPL, saying unity deserved credit.

Wanderers were relegated to the English Championship in 2012, but would be competing in the elite division after six years in the lower tier.

Ikeme played no part in the team’s promotion back to the elite division, having been diagnosed with an acute Leukemia, but was full of praise for Nuno Espirito Santos’ side.
