The 1989–90 season was the 66th season in the existence of AEK Athens F.C. and the 31st consecutive season in the top flight of Greek football. They competed in the Alpha Ethniki, the Greek Cup, the Greek Super Cup, the Greek League Cup and the European Cup. The season began on 26 August 1989 and finished on 2 June 1990. Kits

Overview With Stratos Gidopoulos as president and Dušan Bajević as manager for the second consecutive season, AEK entered the season as the reigning Greek champions. The signing of Daniel Batista further strengthened the squad and raised expectations for another successful season.

The season was began on a positive note as AEK won their first Super Cup, defeating Panathinaikos on penalties after a 1–1 draw following extra time. Shortly afterwards, AEK overturned a 1–0 first-leg defeat to Dynamo Dresden in the first round of the European Cup, recording a memorable 5–3 victory at AEK Stadium to progress. In the second round, they were drawn against Marseille of Bernard Tapie. In the first leg in Marseille, the referee disallowed a legitimate goal by Patikas and AEK were defeated 2–0. The rematch at Nea Filadelfeia ended in a 1–1 draw, eliminating AEK from the tournament. In addition to their elimination, the French reported an attack on their bus and UEFA eventually punished the yellow-blacks with one-year ban from all European competitions.

In the Cup, AEK finished top of their group without suffering a defeat, but were unexpectedly eliminated by newly promoted Ionikos in the round of 32 for the second consecutive season.

Domestically, AEK conceded the fewest goals in the league for the second successive season, but finished runners-up to Panathinaikos. Among the highlights of their league campaign were an 8–0 victory over Skonda Xanthi and a 7–1 win against Panionios. Daniel Batista finished as the club's top scorer with 15 goals.

AEK concluded their season by winning the Greek League Cup, defeating Olympiacos in the final on 2 June. It was the only edition of the competition ever held.

Notable performers during the season included Savevski, Okoński, Daniel Batista, Manolas, Savvidis, Patikas and Christodoulou.
