The 1989–90 season was the 93rd season of competitive football in Scotland.

Rangers won their third league title in four seasons under the management of Graeme Souness.

Aberdeen won their first major honours since the departure of Alex Ferguson, winning the Scottish Cup and the League Cup.

Celtic finished the season trophyless, mounting the pressure on manager Billy McNeill.

Mo Johnston was credited to be the first Catholic player to sign for Rangers, after coming close to rejoining his old club Celtic from Nantes of France, but more than a dozen players have worn the blue shirt, the first Pat Lafferty in 1886. Also arriving at Rangers was the Everton and England winger Trevor Steven, filling the gap on the right wing left by club hero David Cooper, who signed for Motherwell.

Rangers had four players - more than any other club - in England's World Cup squad - goalkeeper Chris Woods, defenders Gary Stevens and Terry Butcher, and winger Trevor Steven.
