Only Good Stickers: Panini Foot 2024

Foot 2024 is the official sticker collection of the French football, featuring the Ligue 1 2023/20024. For the second time the Ligue 2 was part of a separate digital collection and for the sixth consecutive edition a collector's box with the hardcover album was released.

The album begins with an introductory page, including the table of contents and the first sticker of this collection: the official ball (shiny sticker). The coaches of the Ligue 1 clubs are then shown in the section "Les stratèges", in which there are 16 stickers displaced over four pages, with a detailed description of each coach career.

The Ligue 1 clubs are then shown in alphabetical order with 22 stickers displaced over four pages. In the first two pages we find data and statistics, together with four stickers: the shiny club badge, the player with the most appearances (shiny sticker), the home shirt, and the talented player (shiny). In the following two pages, there are 18 player portrait stickers composing the squad. Two of those player stickers are shiny, named as the "rock" and the "genius".

The "Top Signings" section is divided in three blocks of two pages in the album, for a total of 36 shiny stickers of players in action. Some big transfers were Balogun (Monaco), Le Fée (Rennes), Kolo Muani and Dembélé (PSG). In the center of the album there is the calendar of the season with the sticker of the Ligue 1 trophy. In the following two pages, the Foot collection gives some space for the first time to the amateur football, with 24 shiny stickers (UE01 to UE24) of random players that are part of 24 clubs sponsored by Uber Eats. The enthusiasm for this iniative stops right there, because Panini made those stickers rarer than the others in the packets, inducing scarcity and making the collection hard to complete. In addition, Panini produced also a limited edition sticker (UE00) printed only in 500 copies. This sticker is not intended to be part of the collection, but it is an extra sticker that allows for winning an original shirt of an amateur football club.

In the last part of the album there is one section dedicated to the Ligue 1 referees (16 stickers over two pages) and the usual winter market section ("Mercato d'Hiver"), featuring 46 new player stickers that were released with the update set in April 2024. The update set includes also some mini-stickers to be placed in correspondace of the players that left the club during the season and specific tag stickers for the UNFP awards of the Ligue 1 2023/2024: best goalkeeper (Donnarumma - PSG), best player (MBappé - PSG), best coach (Erik Roy - Brest), and best young player (Zaire-Emery - PSG).
