The official sticker collection of the Chilean league for the season 2016-2017 was issued by Panini in November 2016, later than the edition 2015, which was released in the month of August. In fact, this album covers both the Apertura 2016 and Clausura 2017 tournaments.
The album opens with the calendar of the season and one page dedicated to the winner of Clausura 2016, the Club Deportivo Universidad Catolica. In this page we find five stickers: the logo of Universidad Catolica (transparent sticker), the Goleador of the team (Castillo), and a celebration photo (composed by three stickers).
The second section of the album (Bicampeones!) is dedicated to the Chilean National team that won the second Copa America in a row. Here we find 33 stickers out of which 24 are shining metallic stickers: the Chilean federation logo and 23 players in action. The other 9 regular stickers compose a puzzle with a celebratory picture of the team.
Each team includes the club badge sticker printed on transparent foil and 11 players. Therefore only the regular players are included in this album. These pages are enriched by statistics, photos and tactics of the teams and the stadiums.
The Primera B section starts with a tribute to the previous season champions, Club Deportes Temuco. Here we find 5 stickers: the transparent club badge, the goleador, and celebrations (three stickers). Then the Primera B clubs are shown in alphabetical order with a total of three stickers each: the club badge and the team photo composed by two stickers.
Three rookies of this collection: Angelo Quinones, Francisco Sierralta and Brian Torrealba
