The men’s Team of the Season 2024/25 was revealed on Wednesday 25 June, as the European Handball Federation announced the male winners of the EHF Excellence Awards 2025 — the EHF’s annual awards to honour the best handball players of the season. The announcement follows two weeks after the female winners were revealed.

From 18 to 23 June, players, coaches, selected handball journalists, and fans were invited to have their say on the "Team of the Season," with every stakeholder group’s vote accounting for 25 per cent of the final result.

For every position on the playing court — left wing, left back, centre back, right back, right wing, line player, goalkeeper, and defender — a total of six players were nominated based on their performances in the 2024/25 season on a national team as well as on a club level.
