Cremonese are the latest team to secure promotion to Serie A after beating Spezia in the Serie B play-off final on Sunday evening, which means that the line-up for the 2025-26 season is now complete.
Cremonese beat Spezia by an aggregate of 3-2 over the two legs of the play-off final, with all five goals coming in the second leg.
Cremonese, the away side on Sunday night, went 3-0 up by the 79th minute after a brace from Manuel De Luca and an individual strike from Michele Colloccolo, which was enough to hold on for despite a late, quick-fire Spezia fightback with goals from Francesco Pio Esposito and Luca Vignali in the 83rd and 85th minute.
La Cremo return to the top flight after a two-year absence, having been relegated at the end of the 2022-23 Serie A campaign.
They join Sassuolo and Pisa as the newly promoted sides for 2025-26, replacing the relegated Empoli, Venezia and Monza.
