Plus Eredivisie 2026

 

Eredivisie 2025/2026 is a sticker collection dedicated to the Dutch top football division, distributed by the supermarket chain Plus during the 2025/2026 season. Sticker packets were offered free with purchases, as a tradition that had been absent since the Eredivisie 2020/2021 album distributed by Albert Heijn. As such, the album represents a welcome return of supermarket-based football collecting in the Netherlands, while the last Panini album is dated 2005.

The collection consists of 288 regular stickers and four XXL stickers, which are integrated into the album at specific points. The opening pages contain an introductory section featuring the first XXL sticker, depicting the official match ball of the Eredivisie. 

The main body of the album is dedicated to the 18 Eredivisie clubs, which are shown in alphabetical order. Each club occupies four pages and is represented by 16 stickers. The sticker selection is deliberately simple, consisting of the golden club badge and 15 player portrait stickers. Alongside the stickers, the pages include information about the club, statistics, and photographs of key players, providing additional context and making the album informative as well as collectible.

Unlike many contemporary football collections, the album focuses almost exclusively on the clubs and their squads, without special sections dedicated to transfers, legends, stadiums, or league highlights. This minimalist approach recalls earlier supermarket collections, where the emphasis was placed on the teams themselves rather than on thematic inserts or premium content.

The final pages of the album are devoted to the section “Kampioen”, designed to celebrate the outcome of the 2025/2026 Eredivisie season. Here collectors can place an XXL sticker featuring the league trophy together with the badges of all participating clubs arranged according to the final league standings. These badges are part of a XXL sticker.

The fourth and final XXL sticker, titled “Ons Voetbal”, is intended for the back cover of the album and serves as a closing tribute to Dutch football. Overall, Eredivisie 2025/2026 is a straightforward and accessible sticker album that prioritizes club representation over elaborate special sections. While its design is relatively simple compared to many modern commercial collections, the return of an Eredivisie album after a five-year absence and the inclusion of the XXL stickers make it an appealing souvenir of Dutch football for both young collectors and long-time fans of supermarket sticker promotions.

On the field, the 2025/2026 Eredivisie season concluded with PSV Eindhoven securing the league title after another strong domestic campaign. Ayase Ueda finished as the championship's top scorer with 25 goals for Feyenoord.

Panini Tour de France 2025

 

Tour de France 2025 is Panini’s official sticker collection dedicated to the 2025 edition of the world’s most famous cycling race. Published also in a hardcover version, the album contains 396 stickers and combines coverage of the men’s and women’s competitions with a strong focus on the route and the participating teams.

The album opens with an introductory page presenting the route of the Tour de France 2025 together with the first sticker of the collection, a metallic sticker of the mascot MaxooAs the 2025 edition starts from Lille, Panini dedicates the following two pages to “Les Hauts-de-France et le Tour de France”, a thematic section celebrating cyclists connected to the Hauts-de-France region. Here we find six metallic stickers portraying historical riders.

The album then moves to one of its central elements: the presentation of the route and the stages of the Tour. Each stage receives its own dedicated space with one sticker per stage, for a total of 23 stickers. In addition, Panini leaves empty spaces where collectors can place the stickers of the stage winners released later with the update set titled “Les Instantanés”. At the conclusion of this section, the album also includes spaces for the four winners of the Tour’s distinctive jerseys — yellow, green, polka-dot mountain jersey, and white jersey — whose stickers are likewise part of the update release. 

The presentation of the participating teams forms the core of the collection. The 22 teams are shown in alphabetical order and each receives 14 stickers spread over dedicated pages. For every team, the layout includes the metallic team logo, a sticker of the team in action, the metallic team bike, the official jersey, and 10 portrait stickers of riders expected to play a role in the race. 

The final part of the album is dedicated to the Tour de France Femmes 2025, reinforcing the increasing prominence of women’s cycling within modern Panini collections. This section opens with the presentation of the route, represented by a metallic sticker, followed by a page reserved for the winners of the women’s jerseys classifications, whose four stickers are again included in the update set. The women’s competition is then represented through the 18 participating teams, each featured with one rider portrait sticker. Although more compact than the men’s section, this inclusion gives visibility to the growing importance of the women’s Tour de France.

From a sporting perspective, the Tour de France 2025 was once again dominated by Tadej Pogačar, who secured another overall victory. In the women’s competition, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot won the Tour de France Femmes 2025 in her debut participation, becoming the first French rider to win the modern edition of the race.
