The 2025 Philadelphia Union season is the club's sixteenth season in Major League Soccer, the top flight of American soccer. The Union will be one of 16 MLS teams to play in the 2025 U.S. Open Cup instead of the 2025 Leagues Cup due to their finish in the 2024 season.^[1] During the offseason, former St. Louis City SC and New York Red Bulls manager Bradley Carnell was hired as head coach to replace Jim Curtin.^[2]

The team opened their preseason camp in Clearwater, Florida, in January 2025 and moved to the Marbella Football Center in Spain for friendlies against European teams.^[3] The Marbella camp roster included 29 players, including several from reserve team Philadelphia Union II who had yet to sign a first-team contract.^[4] The Union's regular season is scheduled to begin on February 22, 2025, with their opening match against Orlando City SC.^[5]
