2024–25 Ligue 2

Red Star (promoted after 5 years of absence) and Martigues (promoted after 22 years of absence) returned to the second division. Since Ligue 2 reduced in size, 4 teams were relegated and only 2 promoted,{{Cite news |url=https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2021/ligue-2-clubs-vote-in-favour-of-reducing-size-to-18-teams/|title=Ligue 2 reduces size to 18 clubs|website=getfootballnewsfrance/ |date=21 May 2024 |accessdate=21 May 2024}} so Troyes, Quevilly-Rouen, Concarneau, and Valenciennes were relegated{{Cite news |title=Les montées et descentes dans les divisions françaises pour 2024-2025 |url=https://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Les-montees-et-descentes-dans-les-divisions-francaises-pour-2024-2025/1469000 |access-date=2024-05-21 |language=fr |work=L'Équipe}} (after 1, 3, 1, and 10 seasons in the second division respectively). Troyes has now been relegated in two consecutive seasons and Valenciennes had last been in the third division since 2004–05. From Ligue 1, Metz, Lorient and Clermont Foot have been relegated to Ligue 2 (after 1, 4 and 3 years in top tier respectively). Auxerre, Angers and Saint-Étienne were promoted to Ligue 1 after one-year absence for the first two and two-year absence for the last one.{{Cite news |date=2024-05-17 |title=Quels sont les clubs qui montent de la Ligue 2 à la Ligue 1 pour la saison 2024-2025 ? |url=https://www.90min.com/fr/posts/quels-sont-les-clubs-qui-montent-de-la-ligue-2-a-la-ligue-1-pour-la-saison-2024-2025 |access-date=2024-05-21 |language=fr-FR |work=90min.com}}

On June 27, 2024, the Direction Nationale du Contrôle de Gestion (DNCG) decided to administratively downgrade Ajaccio to Championnat National by questioning the financial situation of the club, although it was profitable at the end of the 2022–2023 season.{{Cite web |date=2024-06-27 |title=Football.

Troyes were reinstated to Ligue 2 following a request approved by the DNCG.{{Cite web |last=MANGIN |first=Alan |date=2024-06-27 |title=Ajaccio relégué en National par la DNCG, l’Estac repêchée en Ligue 2 ? |url=https://www.lest-eclair.fr/id615688/article/2024-06-27/ajaccio-relegue-en-national-par-la-dncg-lestac-repechee-en-ligue-2 |access-date=2024-06-28 |website=www.lest-eclair.fr |language=fr}}

In a repeat of the 2022 off-season, Bordeaux was administratively relegated to Championnat National in response to their financial struggles. This occurred following the failure of Fenway Sports Group's proposed takeover; although the club had initially appealed the decision, it later withdrew the appeal.{{Cite web |last=Ouest-France |date=2024-07-23 |title=Football.

With the club being required to present the DNCG with their budget prior to the start of the 2024–25 season, they could suffer a further demotion to the Championnat National 2.{{Cite web |last=GetFootball |date=2024-07-24 |title=Official - Bordeaux accepts relegation to third division after FSG pulls out of purchase |url=https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2024/official-bordeaux-accepts-relegation-to-third-division-after-fsg-pulls-out-of-purchase/ | access-date=2024-07-25 |website=getfootballnewsfrance.com |language=en}}
