The 2025–26 Liga FPD, also known as Liga Promérica for sponsorship reasons,[2] will be the 105th season of the Liga FPD, Costa Rica's top-flight tournament. It will begin with the Apertura tournament on 27 July 2025.

This season will be played with ten teams, down from the traditional twelve, as a result of Guanacasteca and Santos de Guápiles being disqualified and having their licenses revoked.[3][4] Therefore, the season's regular phase will consist of 18 matchdays.

Herediano are the defending champions, having won both tournaments of the previous season, being their 30th and 31st titles. The season will also reintroduce the promoted side Guadalupe, who return after their relegation in 2023.[5]

Apertura

The Apertura 2025 tournament (also shortened to A25)[6] will begin on 27 July. It will be dedicated to former Saprissa and longtime Repretel commentator Hernán Morales.
