The 2024–25 season was the 75th season in the history of Olympique Lyonnais and their 36th consecutive season in the top flight. In addition to the domestic league, Lyon participated in this season's editions of the Coupe de France and the UEFA Europa League.

On 15 November 2024, it was announced by the DNCG that Lyon would be provisionally demoted to Ligue 2 at the end of the season because of financial mismanagement and would be banned from signing players in January 2025.[1][2][3]
