The '''Football Club 'Dynamo Kyiv'''', also known as '''Dynamo Kyiv''', or simply '''Dynamo''', ({{Langx|uk|Футбольний клуб «Динамо» Київ}} {{IPA|uk|dɪˈnɑmo ˈkɪjiu̯|}}) is a Ukrainian professional [[Association football|football]] club based in [[Kyiv]]. Founded in 1927 as a Kyivan football team of republican branch of the bigger [[Soviet Union|Soviet]] [[Dynamo Sports Club|Dynamo Sports Society]], the club as a separate business entity was officially formed only in 1989 and currently plays in the [[Ukrainian Premier League]], and has [[List of unrelegated association football clubs|never been relegated]] to a lower division. The club has secured brand rights from the Ukrainian Dynamo society and has no direct relations to the sports society since 1989. Their home is the 70,050 capacity [[Olimpiyskiy National Sports Complex]].

Since 1936, Dynamo Kyiv has spent its entire history in the top league of Soviet and later Ukrainian football. Its most successful periods are associated with [[Valeriy Lobanovskyi]], who coached the team during three stints, leading them to numerous domestic and European titles. In 1961, the club became first-ever in the history of Soviet football that managed to overcome the total hegemony of [[Moscow]]-based clubs in the [[Soviet Top League]]. The [[Spartak Moscow–Dynamo Kyiv rivalry]] that began in the mid-1970s, is widely considered to have been one of the most exciting football rivalries in the Soviet Union.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2008/aug/12/jwilson|title=Honour on the line as Soviet football's biggest rivalry awakens once more|last=Wilson|first=Jonathan|date=2008-08-12|work=The Guardian|access-date=2019-06-24|language=en-GB|issn=0261-3077}}</ref> Since becoming the first Soviet football club to participate in UEFA competition in 1965, Dynamo Kyiv has played in European competitions almost every season.

Over its history, Dynamo Kyiv have won 17 Ukrainian top-flight league titles, 13 Soviet top-flight league titles, 11 Ukrainian national cup competitions, 9 Soviet national cup competitions, and three continental titles (including two [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup]]s). Its two [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup|European Cup Winners' Cups]] make it one of the only two Soviet clubs to have won a UEFA trophy, the other being [[FC Dinamo Tbilisi|Dinamo Tbilisi]]. The Dynamo Kyiv first team became a base team for the [[Soviet Union national football team]] in the 1970–1980s and the [[Ukraine national football team]] in the 1990–2000s. The three [[Star (football badge)|stars]] on the club's crest each signify 10 top-flight seasons Dynamo Kyiv won. The club was recognised as the [[:uk:Списки найкращих футболістів Східної Європи#Клуби|Eastern European Club of the 20th Century]] by [[Agence France-Presse|France-Presse]].
