The '''2025–26 season''' will be the 133rd season in the existence of [[Mohammedan SC (Kolkata)|Mohammedan]] and their second season in the [[Indian Super League]] following promotion from [[I-League]], they also compete in the [[Durand Cup]] and [[AIFF Super Cup|Indian Super Cup]].<br />
<br />
At the first of the season, Mohammedan management faced huge issues regarding investor protocols as Bunkerhill Private Limited cut all ties with the club.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sangbadpratidin.in/football/isl-2024-mohammedan-sc-coach-andrey-chernyshov-steps-down-from-the-position|title=তিনমাস জোটেনি বেতন! পদত্যাগ মহামেডান কোচ চেরনিশভের, আলোচনা চান বাঙ্কারহিল কর্তা|website=sangbadpratidin.in|lang=bn|access-date=2025-01-29}}</ref> So, club management decided to bring new investors by the start of ISL. Moreover, FIFA handed player registration ban on Mohammedan due to not fulfilling the payments of foreign players of previous season, thus forcing all foreigners to leave the club immediately.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sportstar.thehindu.com/football/indian-football/fifa-hands-mohammedan-sporting-transfer-ban-alexis-gomez-unpaid-dues-wages-isl-indian-football-news/article69788486.ece|title=FIFA hands transfer ban to Mohammedan Sporting over unpaid dues to Alexis Gomez|website=sportstar.thehindu.com|date=8 July 2025 |access-date=2025-07-08}}</ref> With huge debt on head, the club has fielded their all-Indian squad in [[Durand Cup]], [[Calcutta Football League]] and [[AIFF Super Cup]] at their own costs.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sangbadpratidin.in/football/mohammedan-sporting-club-officials-to-bear-teams-cost-in-super-cup|title=নেই ইনভেস্টর, নিজেদের খরচে সুপার কাপে দল পাঠাচ্ছেন মহামেডান কর্তারা|lang=bn|website=sangbadpratidin.in|access-date=2025-10-12}}</ref><br />
<br />
In the [[Calcutta Football League]], for the first time in history of 133 years, Mohammedan finished in the bottom six of Premier Division league and got relieved from relegation with slight difference in points.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.anandabazar.com/sports/football/mohammedan-sporting-relegated-in-calcutta-football-league-dgtl/cid/1630958|title=কলকাতা লিগে অবনমন পর্ব খেলতে হবে শতাব্দী প্রাচীন মহমেডানকে|lang=bn|website=anandabazarpatrika.com|access-date=2025-09-25}}</ref><br />
