Club Universidad de Chile is a professional football club based in Santiago, Chile, playing in the Chilean Primera División (2023), the highest tier of the Chilean football league system. This unofficial Club Universidad de Chile fan flag (Spanish: bandera no oficial del Club Universidad de Chile) consists of the team's official logo and a dark blue background derived from the team colors.
The Universidad de Chile logo holds profound significance. At its core, it features a red and white stylized chuncho, an Australian pygmy owl, which carries a capital U on its dark blue shield-shaped chest. The chuncho is a symbol of wisdom and the balance between body and spirit, reflecting the club's commitment to both intellectual and athletic pursuits. This emblem is derived from the logo of Club Náutico Universitario, one of the merging teams that laid the foundation for Universidad de Chile in 1927. The logo thus serves as a tribute to the club's historical origins, blending elements of tradition, wisdom, and sporting prowess in a visually striking representation.
