# 2024–25 ES Mostaganem season

The 2024–25 season, is ES Mostaganem's 9th season in the top flight of Algerian football. On May 27, 2024, ES Mostaganem returned to the Ligue 1 after 25 years of waiting, by defeating ASM Oran. In addition to the domestic league, ES Mostaganem are participating in the Algerian Cup. On June 27, 2024, The federal office approved the calendar for the 2024–25 Ligue 1 season with the aim of ending on May 31, 2025. The first round is scheduled for September 14, this delay is motivated both by an extended end of the 2023–24 season but also by the holding of early presidential elections which will take place on September 7, 2024. However, the Ligue de Football Professionnel decided to postpone the start of the Ligue 1 by a week, on September 21.
The coffers of ES Mostaganem were replenished, with a subsidy of around 20 million dinars from the wilaya, while waiting for a similar sum to also be allocated to this promotion to Ligue 1 from the APC of Mostaganem. By this financial contribution, registered as “an exceptional motivation bonus” rewarding Espérance for its return among the Algerian elite after a wait of 25 years, the wali honors his commitment which he kept when he had received the champions of Ligue 2.
