Dynamo Moscow has its roots in the football Club Sokolniki Moscow.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

After the Russian Revolution, the club eventually found itself under the authority of the Interior Ministry and its head Felix Dzerzhinsky, chief of the Cheka, the Soviet Union's secret police. The club was renamed Dynamo Moscow in 1923 but was also referred to disparagingly as "garbage", a Russian criminal slang term for "police", by some of the supporters of other clubs.{{Cite web|last=Woodward|first=Hamish|date=2021-06-13|title=Arsenal vs Dynamo Moscow: The Historical Match Shrouded in Mystery|url=https://atletifo.com/football/arsenal-vs-dynamo-moscow/|access-date=2021-06-13|website=Atletifo Sports|language=en-US}}

Dynamo won the first two Soviet Championships in 1936 and 1937, a Soviet Cup in 1937, and another pair of national titles in 1940 and 1945. In 1945, they were also the first Soviet club to tour the West when they played a series of friendlies in the United Kingdom.{{Citation |title=United Kingdom |date=2023-05-30 |url=https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/countries/united-kingdom/ |work=The World Factbook |access-date=2023-06-06 |publisher=Central Intelligence Agency |language=en}}{{cite web |title=ee88 |url=https://eee88club.com/ |access-date=6 June 2023}} Complete unknowns to the British, the Soviet players first drew 3–3 against Chelsea and then defeated Cardiff City 10–1. They defeated an Arsenal side reinforced with Stanley Matthews, Stan Mortensen and Joe Bacuzzi by a score of 4–3 in a match played in thick fog at White Hart Lane. They then drew 2–2 against Scottish side Rangers, meaning they completed the tour undefeated.{{cite news |title=The Russians who came with a warning Britain wouldn't hear |publisher=BBC Sport |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/54839305 }}

They continued to be a strong side at home after World War II, and enjoyed their greatest success through the 1950s. Dynamo captured another five championships between 1949 and 1959, as well as their second Soviet Cup in 1953. Honours were harder to come by after that time. The club continued to enjoy some success in the Soviet Cup, but has not won a national championship since 1976. Even so, Dynamo's 11 national titles make them the country's third-most decorated side behind Dynamo Kyiv (13 titles) and Spartak Moscow (12 titles).{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

In the 1971–72 European Cup Winners' Cup, Dynamo reached the Final at Camp Nou in Barcelona, losing 3–2 to Rangers. This was the first time a Russian side had reached a final in a European competition, a feat not repeated until CSKA Moscow won the UEFA Cup in 2005.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

At the end of the 2008 season, Dynamo finished third, qualifying for the 2009–10 Champions League preliminary round. On 29 July 2009, Dynamo recorded a 0–1 away win against Celtic at Celtic Park,{{cite news |title=Celtic 0–1 Dynamo Moscow |first=David |last=McDaid |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/8173689.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |date=29 July 2009 |access-date=26 May 2012 }} which gave them a strong advantage going into the second leg. However, Celtic comfortably defeated Dynamo 0–2 in Moscow to progress,{{cite news |title=D'mo Moscow 0–2 Celtic (agg 1–2) |first=David |last=McDaid |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/8178985.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |date=5 August 2009 |access-date=26 May 2012 }} sending Dynamo into the Europa League play-off round where the club was eliminated by Bulgarian side CSKA Sofia after a 0–0 away draw in Sofia and a 1–2 home defeat in Moscow.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

In 2012, after a poor start to the season in which they lost their first five league games, Dynamo replaced interim manager Dmitri Khokhlov with the Romanian Dan Petrescu, who managed to pull the club out of the relegation zone into a position in the upper-half of the league table. The team was close to qualifying for a place in European competition, but a failure to win in the last matchday left them in seventh, two points below the last Europa League qualifier position. Despite his efforts, Petrescu's contract was terminated on 8 April 2014 by mutual agreement after a heavy loss to league outsiders Anzhi Makhachkala 0–4.{{cite web|url=http://rus.rfpl.org/index.php/match/index/9189|title=Match protocol|publisher=Russian Football Premier League|date=6 April 2014|language=ru|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140408225235/http://rus.rfpl.org/index.php/match/index/9189|archive-date=8 April 2014}} As Dynamo Director of Sports Guram Adzhoyev stated, "Last year Dan drew the team from the complicated situation, lifted it to the certain level, but recently we have seen no progress."{{cite web|publisher=FC Dynamo Moscow|url=http://fcdynamo.ru/news/events/?id_4=5546|script-title=ru:"Динамо" расторгло контракт с Даном Петреску|date=8 April 2014|language=ru}} Petrescu was replaced by Stanislav Cherchesov as manager. Under his management, Dynamo qualified for the group stage of the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League in which they won every game before falling to Napoli in the Round of 16. Dynamo was only able to finish in fourth place in the 2014–15 season after a string of poor results in the latter stages.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

In June 2015, Dynamo was excluded from 2015–16 Europa League competition for violating Financial Fair Play break-even requirements.{{cite web|publisher=UEFA|url=http://www.uefa.org/mediaservices/newsid=2239253.html|title=FC Dinamo Moskva referred to Adjudicatory Chamber for break-even requirement breach|date=24 April 2015}}{{cite web|publisher=Rossiya Segodnya|url=http://rsport.ru/football/20150619/840603225.html|script-title=ru:УЕФА отстранил "Динамо" от участия в ЛЕ-2015/16 за нарушение финансового fair play|date=19 June 2015|language=ru}} As a result, VTB Bank proposed to transfer 74 percent of the shares of the club to the Dynamo sports society. Under the proposed plan, the society would own 100 percent of shares of Dynamo as it did in 2009, while the shares of the VTB Arena would still be held by the Bank. The move would allow the club to comply with the requirements of Financial Fair Play, and VTB Bank would continue to provide support to Dynamo to the extent consistent with Financial Fair Play regulations.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

Manager Stanislav Cherchesov was replaced by the returning Andrey Kobelev, and many foreign players, such as Mathieu Valbuena, Balázs Dzsudzsák and Kevin Kurányi, subsequently left Dynamo. Several young Dynamo prospects, such as Grigori Morozov, Aleksandr Tashayev and Anatoli Katrich, who won the Under-21 competition in the 2014–15 season, were introduced to the first-team squad.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

On 22 December 2015, Chairman of Dynamo's board of directors Vasili Titov announced that the shares had not been transferred to the Dynamo society; that FFP compliance rather than the share transfer was the top priority for the club; and that he expected the club to achieve compliance by April 2016.{{cite web|publisher=Russian News Agency TASS|url=http://tass.ru/sport/2549461|script-title=ru:Василий Титов: ФК "Динамо" будет соответствовать правилам финансового fair-play к апрелю|date=22 December 2015|language=ru}}

After the winter break of the 2015–16 season, Dynamo won only one game out of 12 played in 2016 and Kobelev was fired with 3 games left in the season. On the final day of the season, Dynamo lost 0–3 to FC Zenit Saint Petersburg at home, dropped to 15th place in the table and was relegated from the Premier League.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

In October 2016, with Dynamo leading the second-tier Russian Football National League at the time, the newly appointed club president Yevgeni Muravyov claimed that club's debts stand at 13 billion rubles (approximately 188 million euros) and unless a new owner is found shortly or VTB re-commits to covering the club's debts, the club might declare bankruptcy. That would have most likely meant the loss of professional license and relegation to the fourth-level Russian Amateur Football League.{{cite web|publisher=Sovetsky Sport|url=http://www.sovsport.ru/gazeta/article-item/933020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161017023830/http://www.sovsport.ru/gazeta/article-item/933020|url-status=dead|archive-date=17 October 2016|script-title=ru:Евгений Муравьев: Не знал, насколько в «Динамо» все сложно|date=14 October 2016|language=ru}}

On 29 December 2016, Dynamo Sports Society agreed to buy VTB Bank shares back for 1 ruble. On 13 January 2017, VTB Bank announced they will sponsor Dynamo Sports Society to the amount of 10.64 billion rubles for the period from 2017 to 2019 (approximately 167 million euros as of that date). HC Dynamo Moscow and other teams of the society were also to be financed under that deal.{{cite web|publisher=RIA Novosti|url=http://rsport.ru/football/20170113/1114888713.html|script-title=ru:ВТБ предоставляет обществу "Динамо" спонсорский вклад в 10,6 млрд руб|date=13 January 2017|language=ru}} On 1 February 2017, former club president Boris Rotenberg said that the 75 million euro debt the football club owes to Rotenberg's companies has been restructured and "is not harming anybody".{{cite web|publisher=Russian News Agency TASS|url=http://tass.ru/sport/3988728|script-title=ru:Ротенберг заявил, что долг ФК "Динамо" перед ним "никому не мешает"|date=1 February 2017|language=ru}} On 12 April 2017, with 7 games left to play in the 2016–17 season, Dynamo secured the return to the top level Russian Premier League for 2017–18. That is the FNL record for the earliest a team secured promotion.

On 14 March 2018, Yevgeni Muravyov was dismissed as the club president due to unauthorized payment made as a "bonus" to a third company during the transfer of Konstantin Rausch from 1. FC Köln.{{cite web|publisher=FC Dynamo Moscow|url=http://fcdynamo.ru/news/events/?id_4=13347|title=Yevgeni Muravyov left Dynamo|date=14 March 2018|language=ru}}

The new stadium for the club, VTB Arena was completed in late 2018. Following that, the stadium majority owner and football club's major sponsor VTB Bank expressed interest in reacquiring the control over the club. On 14 February 2019, Dynamo Sports Society agreed to sell back the club shares to "Dynamo Management Company" (the company that owns the stadium and has VTB bank as the majority owner). The price was the same symbolic 1 ruble. On 26 April 2019, it was reported that the deal is close to be finalized formally, but the price for the stock increased to 10 billion rubles (approximately €138 million). This reported larger number includes accumulated debts and the cost of the club's training centre.{{cite web|publisher=Sport Express|url=https://www.sport-express.ru/football/rfpl/news/istochnik-ctalo-izvestno-za-skolko-bank-vtb-priobrel-akcii-dinamo-1539239/|title=Источник: cтало известно, за сколько банк ВТБ приобрел акции "Динамо"|trans-title=Sources: The value of VTB-Dynamo deal announced|date=26 April 2019}} (At the beginning of 2021, the club's chairman Yuri Solovyov said in an interview that Dynamo's debts were about 5.4 billion rubles.

The 2019–20 season, their first back at the home stadium, started poorly and head coach Dmitri Khokhlov resigned after 12 games played with Dynamo in second-to-last position in the table. Under his replacement, Kirill Novikov, results improved and at the end of the season Dynamo finished 6th. That allowed Dynamo to qualify for European competition (UEFA Europa League) for the first time in 6 seasons.{{cite web|publisher=FC Dynamo Moscow|url=https://fcdm.ru/news/proigrali-v-tbilisi-15766/|title=Проиграли в Тбилиси|date=17 September 2020|language=ru}}

However, at the end of September 2020, Novikov was dismissed after losing to Locomotive Tbilisi (UEFA qualification) and Khimki (RPL). Sandro Schwarz was appointed as the new coach on 14 October.{{Cite web|url=https://fcdynamo.ru/news/events/?id_4=15842|title= Сандро Шварц – новый главный тренер футбольного клуба "Динамо" Москва|date=2020-10-14|publisher=FC Dynamo Moscow}}

In the spring of 2021, the sports press started talking about the "revival" of the Moscow Dynamo. Since the appointment of Sandro Schwarz as coach, the team have won seven victories and four defeats in the Russian Premier League matches. The club's sporting director, Željko Buvač, has already described the start of the season as "great."{{Cite web|url=https://www.championat.com/football/article-4305747-dinamo-zhelko-buvacha-prokachivaet-molodezh-arsena-zakaryana-i-konstantina-tyukavina.html|title= Борьба со "Спартаком" и новые герои.

On 24 February 2022, as a consequence of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, VTB Bank was sanctioned by the United Kingdom.{{cite web|agency=Reuters|url=https://www.reuters.com/world/sanctions-hit-vtb-bank-has-several-plans-minimise-impact-its-clients-2022-02-24/|title=Sanctions-hit VTB Bank has several plans to minimise impact on its clients|date=24 February 2022|access-date=24 February 2022}} On the same day, VTB Bank transferred the shares of FC Dynamo back to the Dynamo Sports Society.

After the invasion was launched, former Liverpool F.C. and Ukraine striker Andriy Voronin, who had been the team's assistant coach, left the club, writing that he could not work in a country that was bombing his homeland.{{Cite web|url=https://www.sporf.com/russian-club-fc-krasnodar-suspends-contracts-of-foreign-players/|title=Russian club FC Krasnodar suspends contracts of eight foreign players|first=Lewis|last=Corrick|date=4 March 2022|website=SPORF}}

In the 2024–25 Russian Premier League season, Dynamo gained 30 points after the first half of the games have been played, that was a 5-point improvement on the previous season's record at the same point.

Since its establishment in 1923, Dynamo's historical rival has been Spartak Moscow. Clashes between the clubs were seen by their fans and more generally as the most important games in the Soviet Union for more than three decades, attracting thousands of spectators. (Ironically, however, on New Year's Day in 1936, it was a combined Dynamo-Spartak team that traveled to Paris to face Racing Club de France, then one of Europe's top teams.) Dynamo clinched the first-ever Soviet League by beating Spartak 1–0 at Dynamo Stadium. Spartak responded by winning the championship the following year.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}
