For the second consecutive year, Panini released a Calciatori Celebration set with the highlights of the Italian football season 2023/2024. The collection is composed by an album sold with a set of 144 stickers, to be completed with 16 update stickers released in two special packets in June 2024.
Compared to the first edition, this 2023/2024 collection is a big downgrade. First of all, the album was early released, before the end of the season, and the section with the movie of the season does not cover the last 12 rounds of the tournament. To complete the album with the winners of the season it is necessary to get two special update packets (sold with newspapers in June 2024) for a total of 16 update stickers. Also, the section of the Serie A champions 2024 (Inter) at the beginning of the album is very small, with just a photo composed by three stickers.
The main core of the album is made by Serie A club pages (one page for each club) including six stickers of players in action with stats of the season. The album shows then the "Top Moments" of the Serie A with 20 stickers displaced over four pages, covering from round 1 to 26 of the Serie A 2023/2024. The album continues with sections dedicated to the winners of the other trophies. The Supercup 2024 section features the stickers of the winners (Inter), the runners-up (Napoli) and the clubs that losts the semifinals (Lazio and Fiorentina). Inter won the Supercup defeating Napoli (1-0) in Ryiadh with a goal of Lautaro Martinez. In the Coppa Italia section there are three stickers, with the semifinals, the final and the winners (Juventus-Atalanta 1-0). The section dedicated to the Women's football includes three stickers with the Serie A winners (Roma) and runners-up (Juventus), and the Coppa Italia winners (Roma). In the Serie B and Serie C pages there are in total six stickers with the clubs promoted to the higher division: Parma, Como and Venezia from Serie B to Serie A and Mantova, Cesena and Juve Stabia from Serie C to Serie B. The last page of the album is dedicated to the Coach Experience award, with one sticker of the 2024 winner Simone Inzaghi (Inter).
