text: Club crest The main element in the current club crest is the red five-pointed star – symbol of glory and power. Red was the colour of the uniform of the Roman legions, associated with love, freedom and aggression. The six oak leaves above the star symbolise strength, endurance and traditions. CSKA's name and year of foundation (1948) can be seen below the star, between two Bulgarian flags. The circle form of the crest symbolises infinity and eternity.
  After CSKA won its 30th national title in 2005, three golden stars were added to the logo. In 2017, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the club, CSKA introduced an updated chest.
