The 2008 season was Santos Futebol Clube's ninety-sixth in existence and the club's forty-ninth consecutive season in the top flight of Brazilian football.

On 15 December 2007, Santos appointed Emerson Leão to coach the team for the third time.^[1] This was after the dismissal of Vanderlei Luxemburgo at the end of 2007 season.^[2] Later, Leão was fired due to bad results and for his place Cuca was signed.^[3] Cuca also didn't get good results and was fired on 7 August, replaced by Márcio Fernandes, who assumed the team as caretaker until the end of season.

Unlike the last two seasons, Santos did not get the Campeonato Paulista title, reaching the 7th position.^[4]Their Campeonato Brasileiro campaign was the worst of history, where they were almost relegated, ending in the 15th position, out of 20 teams.^[5] Santos advanced to quarter-finals of Copa Libertadores, but were eliminated by Mexican side Club América after a 1–2 aggregate loss.
