The 2024 season will be Dynamic Herb Cebu's 2nd season in the Philippines Football League and 3rd in the Copa Paulino Alcantara since first forming and making their professional debut in 2021.

Contents

Last season, Cebu finished second in the 2022–23 Philippines Football League in their debut season after United City unexpectedly withdrew, which saw the club qualify for AFC competitions for the very first time. In the AFC Cup, they finished third in their group, having gotten a historic first-ever win over Myanmar's Shan United [1] as well as losses to Australia's Macarthur FC and Cambodia's Phnom Penh Crown. However, the club crashed out in the semi-finals of the 2023 Copa Paulino Alcantara after losing to then-non-league side Davao Aguilas. [2] The club sacked head coach Joshua Schirmer and brought in Turkish coach Memiş Özata as well as the returning Levent Öztürk. [3] After managing to retain most of its local core, the club replaced its departing foreign players with players largely of Dutch and Surinamese nationalities, such as winger Zamoranho Ho-A-Tham and midfielder Guytho Mijland.
