Italian club AS Roma unveiled the new club crest on May 22, 2013 which attempts to adapt the classical logo to a more modern design. The new Roma crest features the writing Roma as well as the founding year of the club, 1927 in the typeface Trajan Pro. The colors have been revamped, too. The illustration of The Capitoline Wolf and the twins Romulus and Remus have been simplified and modernised and come in a gray color.

According to a statement on Roma’s website, they have introduced “an updated brand identity system that honors and builds on its rich history, highlights the club’s connection to Rome and modernizes one of the most beloved brands in football and establishes the visual direction for the Club for years to come.”

A popular nickname for the club is i lupi (the wolves), the animal has always featured on the club's badge in different forms throughout their history. Currently the emblem of the team is the one which was used when the club was first founded. It portrays the female wolf with the two infant brothers Romulus and Remus, illustrating the myth of the founding of Rome, superimposed on a bipartite golden yellow over maroon red shield. In the myth from which the club take their nickname and logo, the twins (sons of Mars and Rhea Silvia) are thrown into the River Tiber by their uncle Amulius, a she-wolf saved the twins and looked after them. Eventually the two twins took revenge on Amulius, before falling out themselves; Romulus killed Remus and as thus was made king of a new city named in his honour, Rome.
