The 2024–25 season is the 108th season in the history of Southampton, and the club's first season back in the Premier League since the 2022–23 campaign, following their promotion from the Championship in the previous season. In addition to the domestic league, the club are participating in the FA Cup and the EFL Cup.
After winning the play-offs in May, Russell Martin was sacked as Southampton dropped to the bottom of the league just a few hours after the team lost 5-0 to Tottenham Hotspur on 15th December 2024.[2] Ivan Juric replaced him on an 18-month contract on 20th December 2024.[3]
