A Semiological Analysis Of Visual Identity In Sports Communication: The Case Of The Algerian Football Federation (faf) Logo

Authors : Cheurfa Asma .

Abstract

This article presents a semiological analysis of the Algerian Football Federation (FAF) logo to explore how visual identity is constructed in sports communication. Using Roland Barthes’ model, the study examines both denotative and connotative meanings of visual elements such as colors, shapes, and symbols. Results show that the FAF logo functions as a symbolic tool conveying national and institutional identity.
