Minnesota United FC’s badge is a tall grey crest with a pointed lower edge, a pale blue diagonal stripe running across the middle, and the black silhouette of a loon placed prominently in the center. A grey star appears in the upper left, while the black “MNUFC” initials sit diagonally near the lower right.
The loon is the badge’s main visual element and connects directly to Minnesota, where the common loon is the state bird. Its red eye, long beak, and raised black wing make the bird the focal point of the crest, with the wing feathers stretching vertically through the right side of the design.
The pale blue stripe is associated with the Mississippi River, while the grey background has been linked to Minnesota’s Iron Range. The star near the top connects to Minnesota’s “L’Étoile du Nord” state motto, commonly translated as “The Star of the North.”
Minnesota United FC adopted the loon badge in 2013 before entering Major League Soccer in 2017. Based in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul region, the club’s badge ties its modern MLS identity to Minnesota geography and state symbolism through the loon, blue stripe, grey field, North Star reference, and compact “MNUFC” initials.
