FINALLY the biggest longing in Azerbaijan

After the XXIII round of the I League, all the teams that qualified for the Misli Premier League have been determined.

Idman.biz reports that after "Gabala", "Imishli" and "Karvan" also secured their places in the top "three".

Clubs that have won the right to play in the Premier League based on sports principles have not fully formalized it. Because the clubs are facing a difficult task such as successfully passing the licensing. Although certain concessions have been promised to the clubs this year, nothing has been clarified yet. But if the permits obtained by sports principles result in reaching the elite...

The 3rd team of Imishli
Although "Imishli" is considered by some to be the successor of the previous clubs, it was officially established in 2022. This means that the club will debut in the Premier League. So far, two teams from the city have played in the elite. After "Lokomotiv" and "MKT-Araz", Imishli will be represented in the Premier League with the 3rd club.

After 15 seasons
"Karvan" is an older club. The team, which even stopped operating for a while, played in the Premier League in 2004-10. Yevlakh representative, who won one silver and one bronze in those years, has been out of the elite for 15 seasons. If "Karvan" returns to the elite, it will be the team that returns to the history of Azerbaijani football after the longest break.

Shared record
Until now, the record belonged to "Araz-Nakhchivan" and "Goyazan". The representative of Gazakh joined the top division of the first championship he played in 1992, and again in the 13th season - 2004/05. "Araz-Nakhchivan" left the elite in the 11th championship and returned in the 23rd. But Nakhchivan, who waited for 2014/15 after the 2001/02 season, could not finish the race they returned to after longing.

Five-year plan
In history, a team needed 5 seasons to return to the Premier League 3 times. In the 1998/99 season, Qusar "Shahdag" and "Kapaz" in both the 2010/11 and 2022/23 seasons ended the 5-year longing with a return. This time, "Karvan"'s return is equal to the sum of those three series.

It should be noted that "Gabala" secured their return to the Premier League after only one season a few rounds ago.
