The 2025 Liga Profesional de Primera División season, also known as the Liga AUF Uruguaya 2025,[1] is the 122nd season of the Uruguayan Primera División, Uruguay's top-flight football league, and the 95th in which it is professional. The season, which was named "Juan Manuel Izquierdo",[2] began on 31 January and is scheduled to end on 7 December 2025.[3]

Peñarol are the defending champions.

Teams

16 teams compete in the season: the top thirteen teams in the relegation table of the 2024 season as well as three promoted teams from the Segunda División. The three lowest placed teams in the relegation table of the 2024 season (Rampla Juniors, Fénix and Deportivo Maldonado) were relegated to the Segunda División for the 2025 season. They were replaced by the Segunda División champions Plaza Colonia, the runners-up Montevideo City Torque, and the winners of the promotion play-offs Juventud.

Plaza Colonia and City Torque both returned to the top flight after one season and Juventud played in Primera División for the first time since 2019, while Rampla Juniors were relegated after one season, Fénix returned to the second tier after a 14-year spell in Primera División, and Deportivo Maldonado were relegated after five seasons.
