Chicago Red Stars Rebrand as Chicago Stars FC for 2025 Season

The rebranding marks a fresh start under new ownership, retaining ties to Chicago's identity while modernizing the team's image.

The Chicago Red Stars will officially become Chicago Stars FC in 2025, maintaining elements of their legacy while introducing a new crest.
New ownership led by Laura Ricketts, co-owner of MLB's Chicago Cubs, prompted the rebranding to signify a new chapter for the club.
The rebranding process included feedback from players, fans, and community members to ensure the new identity resonates with Chicago's ethos.
The new crest features a central red star, symbolizing the team's past, present, and future, with colors representing the Chicago night sky and Lake Michigan.
The team will continue using the Red Stars name and crest for the remainder of the 2024 season and playoffs, with a full transition to the new brand in 2025.
