Panini Calciatori 2008


The season 2007/2008 confirms Inter at the top of the Italian football, with their third consecutive title. Ibrahimovic played a major role for Inter with 17 goals and scoring twice in the last game against Parma, necessary to keep Roma behind. This is also the season of the 17 years old Balotelli (rookie sticker in this album), who made his debut with Inter scoring important goals in the last part of the season.
The album "Calciatori" 2007/2008 is a rich collection including the four professional leagues and the women's league. The cover is not one of the most intriguing created by Panini, but it was used also in other league albums of the following season (Greek Superleague 2009, Turkish Superlig 2009, French Foot 2009, Apertura Argentina 2009). The collection begins directly with the Serie A clubs in alphabetical order. For each team there are 24 regular stickers (including shiny badge, team photo, and the coach) and 6 update stickers of players that joined the club during the winter market. The update with the new transfer was released in the spring 2008.

The Serie B section is preceded by the two stickers of the official balls, numbered N1 and N2. After the calendar, the Serie B clubs are shown in alphabetical order with the shiny badge (half sticker), the team (1 stickers), and 20 players (5 stickers).







Serie C1 and C2 include only the sticker of the team (half sticker), for a total of 18 stickers (Serie C1) and 27 stickers (Serie C2). In addition, there is a one page section with 12 stickers of the best 48 players of Serie C1.





The amateur league (Serie D) includes only the sticker with the logos of the league and the association. For the Women's league there are 12 stickers of the teams competing in Serie A. 



The last part of the album includes two special sections. The first one is "Top Team", with the 11 players most voted online. These stickers could be requested from Panini at the end of the season. The second one is "Calcio Spettacolo", with a selection of some spectacular football actions. Here we find 12 stickers of famous Serie A players in 2007/2008 (Ibrahimovic, Trezeguet, Kakà, etc.).
