Panini/Este Liga 2021

 

For the season 2020/21 the official sticker collection of LaLiga changes its look. The main new feature are the vertical stickers of players in action instead of the usual horizontal layout. However, this collection does not seem an improvement, considering the small badge stickers, the lack of metallic stickers and the usual early release with multiple new series to update the collection along the season. The two features that make the collection worth to be collected are the hardcover album, which is produced for the second consecutive year, and the 24 marvelous autographed metallic stickers of the section "Serie 10".

The album shows first the 20 clubs of LaLiga in alphabetical order. For each club there are two pages with the coach sticker, the round club badge sticker and space for 17 player stickers. The actual number of player stickers is larger, with sometimes two or even three stickers for the same spot. Those new stickers are released along the season inside the sticker packets and the collector can choose the stickers to stick on the album and the ones to keep aside. In this album it is more difficult to stick multiple stickers on the same spot, as it was suggested in previous collections (example). 

In the last part of the album there are some special sections. "Serie 10" includes 24 special stickers of players in action. Those are autographed metallic stickers of some of the best offensive players of the league. The second division is also included with club badge stickers of the 22 competing clubs (total of 11 stickers over two pages). The final pages are about the new signings (Ultimos Fichajes), with 72 stickers released inside the packets during the season. The last three stickers of this section are the top three signings 2021: Luis Suarez, Trincao and Rakitic.

The collection includes also the "Conmemorativos" stickers (two general stickers released with the magazine Jugon) and the "Chicle" stickers, which are chewing-gum stickers. In addition, an update set was released in the spring 2021 (with Jugon) including a mini album and 42 new stickers of winter transfers.
