Olympiacos Football Club, commonly known as Olympiacos or Olympiacos Piraeus, is a professional football club based in Piraeus, Greece. The team competes in the Super League Greece, the top tier of Greek football, and is widely regarded as the most successful club in the country. This unofficial Olympiacos FC fan flag (Greek: ανεπίσημη σημαία φιλάθλων του Ολυμπιακός Σ.Φ.Π.) features the club's official emblem set against a red-and-white vertically striped background, a design inspired by the team's iconic home jersey and its long-standing visual identity.
The Olympiacos crest is centered around the iconic figure of a laurel-crowned adolescent, known as the "Dafnostefanoménos Éfivos," symbolizing an ancient Olympic Games victor and embodying the ideals of youth, excellence, and eternal triumph. The laurel wreath, made of olive branches, reflects the traditional prize awarded to winners in ancient Greece, reinforcing the club's deep cultural and historical connections. The emblem's red and white color scheme carries strong symbolic meaning, with red representing passion, fire, and victory, while white signifies purity, integrity, and noble values. Surrounding the central figure is the club's full name in Greek, "ΟΛΥΜΠΙΑΚΟΣ ΣΥΝΔΕΣΜΟΣ ΦΙΛΑΘΛΩΝ ΠΕΙΡΑΙΩΣ," which translates to "Olympiacos Association of Fans of Piraeus," highlighting its roots and community identity. Above the emblem, five stars are displayed, representing the club's numerous league titles—surpassing forty—and its 2024 UEFA Europa Conference League triumph, further emphasizing Olympiacos' legacy as a dominant and ever-victorious force in Greek and European football.
