2017–18 Ergotelis F.C. season

The 2017–18 season was Ergotelis' 88th season in existence and eleventh overall in the Football League, the second tier of the Greek football league system. It was the first season of the club in the competition since the club's latest promotion as champions of the 2016–17 Gamma Ethniki Group 4, and the first season under the ownership of Egyptian businessman Maged Samy. The content of this article covers club activities from 1 July 2017 until 31 May 2018.

After hiring controversial Greek manager Takis Gonias in August 2017, the team struggled early on to earn points on the Table and became relegation contenders at an early stage during the tournament. Ergotelis' squad significantly improved and maintained an impressive good form during the second round of the competition, winning several key matches, scoring many goals, maintaining ball possession rates close to 60%-70% and eventually battling their way out of the relegation zone, mainly due to the impressive 22-goal season performance of arriving Belgian striker Hugo Cuypers.

The club also participated in the Greek Cup for the first time since its relegation to the Gamma Ethniki, exiting the competition during the group stage having suffered three consecutive losses.
