The 2025-26 season will be Liverpool's 134th season of football since they were established. The Reds go into the seasons as defending champions, having lifted their 20th league title the year before. The season was preceded by the tragic death of Diogo Jota, who passed in a car accident alongside his brother, Andre Silva.
