The 2025–26 EFL Cup is the 65th and current season of the English Football League Cup. It is sponsored by Carabao Energy Drink and known as the Carabao Cup for sponsorship reasons. The EFL Cup is open to all clubs participating in the Premier League and the English Football League.

The winner of the competition qualifies for the play-off round of the 2026–27 UEFA Conference League.

Newcastle United are the defending champions, having beaten Liverpool in the previous season's final.

Leicester docked six points for financial breaches

Leicester City have been docked six points by the English Football League for breaching financial rules.

The deduction will be applied immediately meaning the Foxes fall from 17th to 20th in the Championship and are only outside the relegation zone on goal difference.

It comes after Leicester were charged by the Premier League in May for a profit and sustainability (PSR) breach in the three years up to 2023-24.

Leicester were relegated from the top flight last season and are currently without a permanent manager after Marti Cifuentes was sacked in January.
