The 2024–25 Men's Euro Hockey League is the 18th season of the Men's Euro Hockey League, Europe's premier men's club field hockey tournament organized by the European Hockey Federation.

The first round will be held from 3 to 6 October 2024 in Thames Ditton, England and the final 8 will take place from 17 to 21 April 2025 in 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands.

Pinoké were the defending champions, having won their first title in the previous season. They were not able to defend their title as they did not qualify for this season's edition as they finished fifth in the Dutch Hoofdklasse.

Association team allocation

A total of 20 teams from 40 of the 42 EHF member associations are set to participate in the 2024–25 Men's Euro Hockey League (the exceptions being Belarus and Russia which are currently suspended). The association ranking based on the EHL men's ranking table is used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:

Associations 1–3 each had three teams qualify.
Associations 4–6 each had two teams qualify.
Associations 7–11 each had one team qualify.

Association ranking

The associations were allocated places for the 2024–25 Euro Hockey League according to their 2022–23 EHL country coefficients, considering their performance in European competitions from 2021–22 to 2023–24.
