In the summer of 1975, Loukas Barlos, setting aside everything else, threw himself into the acquisition of Thomas Mavros. The 21-year-old striker of Panionios had dazzled everyone with his talent and had decided that it was time to move on to one of the greats of the league. Barlos, according to his favorite strategy, was in favor of the proper gallant player in his offer, but Panionios was blocking the transfer. The president of AEK approached Mavros and convinced him immediately, showing his love for AEK and football. Mavros pushed for the transfer, but collided with a relentless attitude of Panionios. A legal dispute began, based on a finding of Thomas's brother and his lawyer that had to do with their father's unsigned consent when the minor Thomas first joined Panionios. The ending of this dispute came a year later after the out-of-court settlement between the two clubs, with Mavros paying the price of a complete absence of one year from the stadiums,[1] recalling the respective case of Nestoridis several years ago. Fadrhonc's work in the football department was becoming effective, creating a team that combined spectacle and results.

After two consecutive years of absence from the European competitions, AEK returned in the UEFA Cup. The draw brought them against the Yugoslav Vojvodina. The first match took place at Karađorđe Stadium and ended 0–0. Fantronk's team confirmed their superiority and took the victory and the qualification with a score of 3–1. In the second round, the draw brought AEK against the Czechoslovak Inter Bratislava. In the first match at Bratislava, AEK faced defeat by 2–0. In the rematch at Nea Filadelfeia the Czechoslovaks "froze" the stadium opening the score at the 2nd minute and the task of AEK became even more difficult. The Union managed to turn the tie by scoring three goals in the second half, but unfortunately the fourth goal that would send them to the next round did not occur.

In the league, AEK remained undefeated for 23 consecutive games and reached seven matches before the finish holding their luck in their own hands. Unfortunately, in the next two matches they suffered an equal number of defeats from Panathinaikos and Aris and in combination with the defeat from PAOK, they finished at second place for a season in a row, 5 points from the top, handing over the title to PAOK. The offensiveness that Fadrhonc gave to team's playing style, resulted in Georgios Dedes as the league's top scorer with 15 goals, while in the top 10 were also Walter Wagner and Mimis Papaioannou with 11 goals each.

In the Cup, AEK eliminated Agios Dimitrios by 7–0 at the first round, Anagennisi Karditsa by 2–1 at the second round, Olympiakos Neon Liosion by 6–0 in the third round at home. In the quarter-finals, they faced Fostiras at Tavros Stadium and won by 0–1. In the semi-finals, they were drawn against Olympiacos at home an despite taking the lead early on the eventually lost the match by 3–2 and therefore were eliminated from the tournament.[2]
