This page highlights the top 10 stickers from the Panini Futebol 2024-2025 album, chosen for their significance to collectors in terms of both monetary value and sentiment.
The Panini Futebol 2024–25 set delivered on multiple fronts: we got three very strong rookies, alongside a few legendary veterans making their last dance in Portuguese football.
Let’s break down my picks for the Top 10 stickers from the set.
10 – Angel Di Maria – Premium (#P-DM) & #71 & #417 – Rookie Sticker from Panini Futebol 2007-2008
This marks Di María’s final season in European football and his last year at Benfica.
A true club legend and one of the most iconic players to wear the shirt in recent history.
This sticker already feels nostalgic — and those always age well.
9 – Guillermo Ochoa – #39 & #367 – Rookie Sticker from Salo Club América 90 Aniversario
Ochoa. Say no more.
The Mexican World Cup legend laced up his boots one last time and showed up in Portugal, playing for newly promoted AFS. A one-season appearance, but a massive name.
Will we see him at the 2026 World Cup? I wouldn’t bet against it.
8 – Nani – #164 – Rookie Sticker from Panini Futebol 2005-2006
A Euro 2016 winner with Portugal, Nani signed for Estrela da Amadora for what would be his final professional season.
He retired mid-season, making this his last career club sticker. That alone earns it a spot in this list.
7 – Viktor Gyokeres – Premium (#P-VG) & #341 & #404 – Rookie Sticker from Panini Futebol 2023-2024
Gyökeres was simply dominant during his time in Portugal.
Scoring goals for fun with Sporting CP, he became one of the league’s most feared strikers. I went with the Premium sticker here, as it’s one of the most desirable versions among collectors.
6 – Joao Rego Rookie Sticker – #434
One of the brightest prospects from the Benfica academy.
Currently alternating between the first team and the B team, João Rego has already scored for Benfica’s senior side. The talent is obvious — and the future looks very bright.
5 – Martim Fernandes Rookie Sticker – #270 & #436
Porto’s youth academy is heavily featured in this set, and Martim Fernandes stands out.
At just 18 years old, the right-back is already being linked with a move to Liverpool. Definitely one to keep an eye on.
4 – Conrad Harder Rookie Sticker – #340 & #405
A Danish poacher with a high work rate, Harder became Sporting’s ultimate super-sub.
He scored the game-clinching goal against Benfica in the Portuguese Cup.
My personal favorite sticker from the entire set is #405 — absolutely love the pink and navy color combo.
3 – Joao Simoes Rookie Sticker – #482
Sporting’s newest crown jewel.
Simões is a midfielder currently serving as a backup for the first team — but expect that to change. At just 19 years old, his minutes and influence will only increase.
1 (Joint) – Rodrigo Mora Rookie Sticker – #280bis
This was a tough one.
So for the first time ever, we have a joint first place.
1 (Joint) – Quenda Rookie Sticker – #326 & #439
Mora and Quenda are arguably the best youth academy products to come out of Portugal since 2020. Both are already featuring for their first teams — Porto and Sporting, respectively.
Quenda has already been purchased by Chelsea, and it won’t be long before we see both shining for the Portuguese national team.
The Other Stickers
Honorable Mentions
Stickers #464, #465, and #486 deserve a special mention.
These are ridiculously rare — to the point where collectors are paying €10 per sticker just to complete the album.
They belong to the update set (#bis), what I like to call short prints (I’ll save that topic for another article).
To put it into perspective: I bought a case of update SET boxes, given how low the production seems to be. These are rumored to fall at roughly 1 per case.
Final Word
That’s it for today’s Top 10.
And yes — cheap plug as always: Need a box, a pack, or a specific sticker?
