The yellow and blue color palette of the emblem represented the energy and power of the club.

The new logo was composed of a stylized dark and calm blue uppercase lettering arched above the circular graphical emblem. The lettering was executed in a custom geometric sans-serif typeface with its first and last letters enlarged. As for the color palette.
