New Zealand's second team in football's A-League will be known as Auckland FC.
The team's playing kit features an electric blue colour way and a shield containing a graphic tribute to Rangitoto and the city's skyline, with an ascending ‘A’ for Auckland in its centre.
Auckland FC will join the league with a men's team next season, with a women's side to follow in 2025-26.
CEO Nick Becker says he wanted to chose a team name that united all the people of Auckland.
"We wanted a name that was going to be representative of Auckland- it's an easy one, there's beauty in its simplicity. Auckland FC, it's a heritage football name."
