Oswaldo de Oliveira (until 2 September) Enderson Moreira (since 3 September)

The 2014 season is Santos Futebol Clube's hundredth second season in existence and the club's fifty-fifth consecutive season in the top flight of Brazilian football. As well as the Campeonato Brasileiro, the club competes in the Copa do Brasil and the Campeonato Paulista. This season is the first in history that Santos uses fixed numbers assigned to each player.

On 19 December 2013, Santos signed Leandro Damião from Internacional for a fee of R$ 42 million (€13m) (biggest transfer in history between two Brazilian clubs). At the same time, the club did not spend a cent, as the player's rights were bought by Doyen Sports, an investment fund based in Malta; Damião was later assigned to Peixe in a free transfer, but the club will have to pay the company after the end of Damião's contract, with a 10% interest per year.

This was Oswaldo de Oliveira's second (third in history) season in charge after Claudinei Oliveira was relieved from the club at the end of the 2013 season. He was relieved from his duties on 2 September, after a bad run of results. A day after Oswaldo's dismissal, Santos appointed Enderson Moreira as the club's new manager.

Santos reached Campeonato Paulista's finals for the sixth successive year, but lost to countryside team Ituano in penalties after a 1–1 draw on aggregate score.

On 15 May, Luis Álvaro de Oliveira Ribeiro resigned from the presidency of the club due to health problems, and Odílio Rodrigues (the former vice-president) assumed the position until the end of his term.
