When does the Premier League 2024/25 season start? Key dates
The Premier League 2023/24 season is dead, long live the Premier League 2024/25 season.
The title race is run, the trophy hoisted, players swanning up and down the beaches of Dubai in their minds, but attention is already turning to 2024/25.
Manchester City and Arsenal will do battle once more, Arne Slot’s Liverpool will return with vengeance in mind, Manchester United fans will return to see whether the roof has been fixed and Chelsea, well, who knows.
Euro 2024 is set to dominate headlines over the weeks to come, but rest assured Premier League supremos will be glued to desks, screens and fax machines as they seek to re-equip their side for another tilt at glory.
