So now we know who the 24 clubs will be in the Championship next season.

Monday’s 2-0 success for Norwich City in the play-off final at Wembley means Middlesbrough will once again be battling it out in the second tier.

And Preston, who saw off Swindon in the League 1 final on Sunday, will be joining them.

With the line-up confirmed, attention now turns firmly to the transfer market as managers look to build squads capable of plotting an assault on the Premier League.

There’s already lots going on around the country, here is some of today’s news and gossip.

Birmingham City: Blues were rocked on Friday by the news that goalkeeper Darren Randolph would not be signing a new contract.

The 28-year-old stopper was in impressive form last season but has opted against extending his stay at St Andrew’s.

His departure will leave a big hole in the squad, according to David Lewis at the Birmingham Mail.

Cardiff: The Bluebirds are said to be lining up a move for Ipswich ace Daryl Murphy.

The experienced frontman topped the Championship scoring charts last season with 27 goals for Mick McCarthy’s side.

And those exploits have attracted Cardiff boss Russell Slade, according to WalesOnline.

Derby: The Rams are expected to name Paul Clement as their new manager.

Clement, who has been Carlo Ancelotti’s assistant at Real Madrid, will replace Steve McClaren who was sacked on Monday.

Huddersfield: The Terriers are not expected to pursue a move for Swindon defender Nathan Byrne.

Byrne, a right-back, had been tipped for a possible switch to the John Smith’s Stadium.

But the Huddersfield Examiner are reporting that Chris Powell is priortising other areas.

Leeds United: Former Leicester City boss Rob Kelly is set to be named as Uwe Rosler’s assistant at Elland Road.

Kelly will be the first addition to the German’s coaching staff.

Another person who has been tipped with a move to Leeds is Steve Head, the former head of recruitment at Reading.

He was made redundant at Madejski Stadium last summer, but has been linked with taking up a similar role in Yorkshire.

Middlesbrough: The Teesiders are still struggling to pick themselves up after Monday’s play-off final defeat against Norwich.

Aitor Karanka’s side were well beaten by the Canaries, as their Wembley hoodoo continued.

And Anthony Vickers at gazettelive.co.uk says Boro must ensure they go up automatically next season to avoid another trip to north London.

Reading: Out of contract goalkeeper Adam Federici is attracting interest from the Premier League.

Both Bournemouth and Southampton have sounded him out about a possible move to the south coast.

But the Cherries have just snapped up Artur Boruc on a free transfer which could end their interest in last season’s player of the year at Madejski Stadium.

QPR: Chris Ramsey is set to go head-to-head with Aston Villa for Swindon pair Massimo Luongo and Ben Gladwin.

Rangers are said to be willing to splash out £4million on the duo, who suffered Wembley heartache on Sunday in the League 1 play-off final.

Young forward Gladwin was once on the books at Reading before being released. Just two years ago he was playing step 5 football at Hellenic League club Marlow.
