Dinamo kept Dario Bonetti as head coach, and won the first trophy of the season, Romanian Supercup, with a win against champions CFR Cluj. But after that the good results failed to appear.

But after a round of poor results, Dinamo missed a place for a European competition for the first time since 1998.
