The 2024/25 season has officially begun!
At the Premier League's Annual General Meeting (AGM) the change from 2023/24 to the 2024/25 campaign has been formalised.
Following their respective promotions from the EFL Championship, Leicester City, Ipswich Town and Southampton can now officially state that they are part of the Premier League.
What has happened?
The three clubs who were relegated - Burnley, Luton Town and Sheffield United - have transferred back the share certificates that gave them Premier League status, and the Premier League Board has confirmed the cancellation of these shares.
A new share certificate for each of the promoted clubs has then been signed by the Premier League directors and company secretary. As required under company law, the three clubs have been entered into the share register.
As a result, the confirmation of the three promoted clubs as members of the Premier League has taken place, with the League formally welcoming them by awarding them their framed share certificates.
The table refresh
The Premier League table has been reset, with the 20 clubs sorted in alphabetical order, while the Premier League's social media accounts now follow those of the three promoted clubs.
All 20 clubs can now look forward to the start of the 2024/25 season, which kicks off on Friday 16 August.
