The 1924–25 season was Manchester City F.C.'s thirty-fourth season of league football, and eleventh consecutive season in the Football League First Division, excluding the four years during the First World War in which no competitive football was played.
The season was the first season for twelve years in which then-longest serving manager Ernest Mangnall was not at the helm of the club. In his place David Ashworth was appointed as manager.
