The outgoing manager, Valeriy Lobanovsky, after accepting his appointment to national team, he recommended as his replacement his friend and coach of Zenit Leningrad Yuriy Morozov.
Its pre-season training Dynamo was holding at Georgian Gantiadi located on eastern-northern shores of the Black Sea, where they departed on 6 January and with few breaks stayed there until mid of February. On 15 February Dynamo had to dispatch some nine of its better players for the national team friendly with Dinamo Tbilisi. A planned training tour to Yugoslavia before the European Cup quarterfinal with Hamburg was cancelled.

The Soviet Top League, known after 1970 as the Higher League, served as the top division (tier) of Soviet Union football from 1936 until 1991. The league's name was a conditional designation used for brevity since being completely owned and governed by the Football Federation of the Soviet Union. The full official name was the USSR Championship in football: Top League. An attempt to create an independent league as autonomously governed organization during "perestroika" period was denied by the Federation due to political culture in the Soviet Union.
The 1971 season of the Soviet Top League saw Dynamo Kyiv clinching their title after three unsuccessful seasons. This season was also unique for successful performances of non-RSFSR clubs: Ararat Yerevan from the Armenian SSR took the second place, while bronze medals were awarded to Dinamo Tbilisi.
The 1990 Soviet Top League season was the 53rd since its establishment. Spartak Moscow were the defending 12-times champions, but came only fifth this season and marginally qualified for continental competitions. The league was shortened and a total of fourteen teams participated. By the start of the season both Georgian teams had withdrawn followed by another withdrawal from Žalgiris at the start of competition. The league consisted of ten teams contested in the 1989 season and the Army club promoted from the Soviet First League. The representatives of the Baltic states as well as Georgia chose not to take part in the competition.
The 1989 Soviet Top League season was the 52nd since its establishment. Dnepr Dnepropetrovsk, the defending 2-times champions, came in second this season.
The 1988 season was the 51st completed season of the USSR Football Championship: Top League. Spartak Moscow, the defending 11-times champions, placed fourth this season.
In the 1987 season, the Soviet Top League – the top tier of football in the Soviet Union – was won by Spartak Moscow interrupting the two year championship run of the Kyiv's team. Dynamo Kyiv, the defending 12-times champions, placed sixth and failed to qualify for the European competitions, while their rivals Dynamo Moscow placed only 10th.
The 1986 Soviet Top League season was the 17th in Top League and 49th of its kind. Dynamo Kyiv were the defending 11-times champions.
The 1985 Soviet Top League was the 16th season of the Soviet Top League, the highest tier football league in the Soviet Union. It also was 48th season of the top tier club competition. Zenit Leningrad were the defending champions.
The 1968 Class A – Pervaya Gruppa was the 30th season of the first-tier football competition in the Soviet Union. 20 teams took part in the league with FC Dynamo Kyiv winning the championship.
The 1974 Soviet Top League was the 36th season of the Soviet top tier football competitions. It also was the 4th season since the establishing of Vysshaya Liga in place of the Soviet Class A competition.
