The official sticker collection of the German Bundesliga produced by Topps for the season 2022/2023 features the 36 clubs of the two main leagues (Bundesliga and 2.Bundesliga). The album begins with the contents and an introductory page including the shiny sticker of the Topps logo. Before the presentation of the Bundesliga clubs, there are three special sections. The first one shows some of the best moments of the previous season (Bundesliga 2021/22) with six stickers: Wirtz (shiny), Sommer, Neuer, Union Berlin, Rothe, and Stuttgart (shiny). Then the Bundesliga 2022/23 is introduced with six stickers: the logo, the Bundesliga trophy (two stickers), the 2.Bundesliga trophy (two stickers), and the official ball. The third section shows the sticker design evolution throughout the 13 editions of the Topps Bundesliga albums since the first one released in 2009/2010. Out of the 13 stickers chosen for this section, three are printed on the album and the other 10 are actual stickers.
The Bundesliga clubs are then shown in alphabetical order, with 19 stickers displaced over four pages for each club: the club badge (shiny sticker), the photo of the home shirt, the kid drawing of the home shirt, and 16 player stickers. The stickers with the players of the squad are not all portraits, as three of them are special stickers in action: the captain, the star player (shiny), and the player in focus (shiny).
Right after the Bundesliga clubs, there is an unexpected section of two pages called #ZukunftBewegen (Move forward - Who can inspire our athletes) about the DFL foundation. Here we find six stickers of general athletes, among which Taliso Engel (swimming) and Anna-Maria Wagner (Judo).
The album resumes with the 2.Bundesliga, including three stickers for each club: the shiny badge, the home shirt (kid drawing) and the captain. For this collection there are no updates or extra stickers. In the following, we show the empty album with the complete set of loose stickers.
