Panini FIFA 365 2023

 

FIFA 365 – The Golden World of Football 2023 is the eighth edition of Panini’s global football sticker series, dedicated to the 2022/2023 season and once again centered around competitions organized by FIFA. With a total of 448 stickers, the album maintains the established FIFA 365 formula while introducing interactive elements and a strong visual identity built around golden stickers.

The album opens with a contents page and an introductory section featuring three stickers: the FIFA 365 logo of this eighth edition, composed of two golden stickers, and the FIFA logo, also presented in a golden finish. 

One of the most distinctive features of this edition is the “My Golden Team” section. Spread over two pages, it is designed to accommodate some of the best players of the season. There are in total 12 My Golden Team stickers, each featuring two players. These stickers are randomly included in packets and can be placed freely by the collector, either in a starting line-up or among substitutes. This interactive concept allows collectors to personalize their album, making it more dynamic compared to traditional fixed layouts.

The main body of the collection is dedicated to 26 clubs from around the world, presented in country order, starting with CA River Plate and concluding with FC Shakhtar Donetsk. Each club is allocated 16 stickers across two pages. The structure includes a shiny club badge, a “club identity” sticker (which may depict elements such as the stadium, mascot, or team bus), and the home or away kit. The squad is represented through ten portrait stickers, each featuring two players, allowing for twenty players per team. In addition, there are three golden action stickers, each showing three players in action.

The final part of the album is dedicated to various international tournaments under the FIFA umbrella. The first section focuses on the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, featuring one shiny sticker of the tournament logo and four additional stickers displaying logos from previous editions. This is followed by a page dedicated to the 2021 FIFA Club World Cup, won by Chelsea F.C., with six stickers highlighting the competition.

The album concludes with a final two-page section covering youth international tournaments, including the FIFA U-17 World Cup and the FIFA U-20 World Cup, for both men’s and women’s football. These sections are represented through a total of six stickers and reinforce the global and developmental scope of the FIFA 365 series.

Overall, FIFA 365 – The Golden World of Football 2023 continues the evolution of the series by combining a compact club presentation with innovative elements like the customizable “My Golden Team” section. The extensive use of golden stickers gives the album a distinctive visual identity, while the inclusion of multiple FIFA tournaments ensures a broad and international perspective.

Panini Football 90 (UK)

 

Panini Football 90 is the official sticker album dedicated to British football for the 1989/1990 season, covering both the English First Division and the Scottish Premier Division. As a direct continuation of the late-1980s Panini style, the collection combines a clean and structured team presentation with a few creative inserts and a strong link to international football, particularly the upcoming 1990 FIFA World Cup.

The album opens with an introductory page featuring four award winners from 1989. These are Mark Hughes, PFA Player of the Year, Paul Merson, Young Player of the Year, Theo Snelders, Scottish Player of the Year, and Billy McKinlay, Scottish Young Player of the Year. This introduction mirrors the structure of the previous edition.

The English First Division clubs are then presented in alphabetical order. All 20 teams are included, each with 15 stickers across two pages. The layout is slightly more compact than the previous year but remains clear and effective, featuring the metallic club badge, the team photo, the manager, and a set of 12 player portrait stickers. 

At the end of the English section, the album introduces a special two-page segment dedicated to the upcoming World Cup. This section contains 17 stickers, including a metallic sticker of the FIFA World Cup Trophy and 16 action stickers celebrating legendary figures from past tournaments. Among the players featured are icons such as Pelé, Johan Cruyff, Eusébio, and Dino Zoff. This section serves both as a tribute to World Cup history and as a build-up to the tournament in Italy.

The album then resumes with the Scottish Premier Division, presenting all 10 clubs in alphabetical order. Each team follows the same structure as the English clubs, with 15 stickers diaplayed over two pages.

The final section of the album is titled “Who said that?”, a light and original feature dedicated to British football commentators. It includes 8 stickers portraying caricatures of well-known commentators, accompanied by famous quotes printed directly on the album page. 

In addition to the main album, this release also includes a separate poster titled “Europe’s Finest”, designed to be completed with 30 metallic stickers of club badges from major European teams such as Real Madrid CF and FC Bayern München. This extra feature broadens the scope of the collection beyond British football and connects it to the wider European scene.

From a sporting perspective, the 1989/90 season saw Liverpool F.C. claim their 18th league title, while Gary Lineker of Tottenham Hotspur F.C. finished as top scorer with 24 goals. In Scotland, Rangers F.C. won the championship, and John Robertson of Heart of Midlothian F.C. was the league’s top scorer with 17 goals.
