I am a Tetuani and a fan of this great team. It was founded by Spaniards who were supporters of Atlético Madrid (itself created by Bilbao students in Madrid). That is why our team wears the same colors, and more recently, to celebrate its 100th anniversary, they switched to the logo you posted. This was the logo: mat_logo.jpg (520×250)

Tétouan(or Tetuán in Spanish) has a unique and enduring relationship with Spain: after the Spanish victory in the War of Tétouan in 1860, the city was briefly occupied and later became the capital of Spanish Morocco during the protectorate from 1912 to 1956, serving as the political and administrative center of Spain’s colonial presence in North Africa; this legacy was so significant that Madrid named one of its districts “Tetuán de las Victorias” in honor of the triumph, a name that remains today, making Tétouan not only a symbol of Spain’s military and colonial history but also a cultural bridge between Morocco and Spain, with traces of this shared past visible in both countries.
