The 2024–25 season is the 138th in the history of Manchester United, their 33rd season in the Premier League and their 50th consecutive and 100th overall season in the top flight of English football. The club is participating in the Premier League, the FA Cup, the EFL Cup, the UEFA Europa League and the Community Shield. The season is the first full season since 2004–05 in which the Glazer family no longer controls the footballing side of the club, having sold 27.7% of the club to Sir Jim Ratcliffe in February 2024.[3]

Pre-season and friendlies

On 23 February 2024, United announced a tour of the United States, with friendly matches against rivals Arsenal and Liverpool at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on 27 July and at Williams–Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina on 3 August, respectively.[4] In March, they announced another game in the United States – against Real Betis on 31 July at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego, a venue with which the club shares a sponsor.[5] Ten days later Manchester United announced they would play Rangers for the first time in a decade at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh on 20 July.[6] The first match of their pre-season tour was announced on 5 April; they faced Norwegian side Rosenborg at Lerkendal Stadion in Trondheim on 15 July.[7]

United lost their first match of pre-season against Rosenborg 1–0 after a goal in the last minute.[8] They registered their first win of pre-season in Scotland, where they beat Rangers 2–0 thanks to goals from Amad Diallo and Joe Hugill; newly signed defender Leny Yoro made his debut in the game, playing the first 45 minutes.[9] In the first game of the United States tour against Arsenal, Rasmus Højlund put United ahead early; however, both he and Yoro suffered injuries in the first half that ruled them out of the opening matches of the season. Gabriel Jesus levelled in the first half and Gabriel Martinelli scored the winner for Arsenal after the break, although United went on to win the post-match exhibition penalty shoot-out 4–3.[10] United returned to winning ways against Real Betis, when goals from Marcus Rashford, Amad Diallo and Casemiro secured a 3–2 win.[11] Manchester United's tour of the United States ended with a 3–0 loss to rivals Liverpool.[12]

FA Community Shield

As a result of winning the 2023–24 FA Cup, Manchester United faced Manchester City, who won the 2023–24 Premier League, in what was United's 31st Community Shield appearance, and their first since 2016.[13] After United took the lead late in the second-half through Alejandro Garnacho, City equalised through Bernardo Silva in the 88th minute, taking the game to penalties. André Onana saved City's first penalty from Silva, but Jadon Sancho's miss with United's fourth kick meant the shoot-out went to sudden death; Jonny Evans put United's eighth penalty over the bar, allowing Manuel Akanji to give City a 7–6 victory.[14]

Premier League

Matches

The 2024–25 Premier League fixtures were released on 18 June 2024.[15] Manchester United opened their Premier League campaign on 16 August 2024 with a 1–0 win over Fulham. Substitute and debutant Joshua Zirkzee scored the only goal of the match in the 87th minute.[16] United then travelled to the Amex Stadium to take on Brighton & Hove Albion. Former United man Danny Welbeck opened the scoring in the 30th minute, capitalising on a defensive mistake. Amad Diallo then levelled the scores in the 61st minute, before United put the ball in the back of the net again through Alejandro Garnacho; however, replays showed that Zirkzee had accidentally tapped the ball into the net from an offside position while attempting to stand up, causing the goal to be ruled out. João Pedro then scored a late winner with an unmarked header at the backpost, condemning the Red Devils to a first league defeat of the season. United then hosted arch-rivals Liverpool at home; although United started well, Trent Alexander-Arnold had the ball in their net in the 8th minute, although the goal was ultimately ruled out for offside. By half-time, United found themselves 2–0 down due to a brace of goals from Luis Díaz. Mohamed Salah scored a third goal for Liverpool in the 56th minute to seal a 3–0 defeat for United.

United then travelled to St Mary's Stadium to face newly promoted Southampton. Two first half goals from Matthijs de Ligt and Marcus Rashford in quick succession, after United goalkeeper Andre Onana had been forced into a penalty save, meant the game was comfortable for United. Garnacho then came off the bench to score a third in second half stoppage time, securing a second victory of the season. United's next game against Crystal Palace was a 0–0 draw, where Onana gained his third clean sheet of the season after being forced into a double-save that later won Premier League Save of the Month for September. To close the month, the Red Devils hosted Tottenham Hotspur, and they conceded in the third minute after centre-back Micky van de Ven was allowed to run through the midfield unchallenged before setting up Brennan Johnson to score. Bruno Fernandes was sent off for the first time in his career after a late tackle on James Maddison, leaving United with 10 men just before half-time. The second half was marked by goals from Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke, sealing a second 3–0 defeat at home in a row.

To kick off October, United traveled to Aston Villa. An exemplary performance from defender Jonny Evans helped secure a clean sheet, though Villa's keeper and Man of the Match Emiliano Martínez held United to a goalless draw. This draw left United with their worst start since the 1989–90 campaign.[17] Manchester United would then host Brentford, with Brentford scoring the opener from a corner off the head of Ethan Pinnock in the 5th minute of stoppage time of the first half. United was able to turn the game around in the second half, with Garnacho scoring an equaliser 2 minutes after the restart. And Rasmus Højlund scoring in the 62nd minute to win the game 2–1.[18] For the last Premier League game of October, United travelled away to West Ham. And after a goalless first half, West Ham would open the scoring in the 74th minute through Crysencio Summerville. United were able to equalise in the 81st minute through a header from Casemiro, only for a penalty to be awarded late on for a colission between Matthijs de Ligt and Danny Ings inside Man Utd's penalty area, which was not given on the field, but was awarded to West Ham after a VAR check. Jarrod Bowen scored the penalty in injury time to win the game for West Ham.[19]

This was manager Erik ten Hag's last game as Man Utd manager, as on 28 October it was announced that he had been sacked, and that Ruud van Nistelrooy would take over as the interim manager.[20]
