The 2024/25 season will be a final chance for collectors to buy Panini Premier League stickers because it will be the final season the Italian brand produces the official sticker album.
Next season Topps will take over the rights to the stickers and fans will be hoping they do a better job and the much maligned Euro 2024 sticker album.
In the meantime fans can look forward to the Panini 2024/25 sticker album, which is expected to be launched early in December 2024 just in time for Christmas. Last year the album launched on 7 December and fans can expect a similar launch date this year for the latest album.

The reason the sticker album launch is several months into the new Premier League season is because Panini needs time to complete up to date squad lists after the transfer window. It needs to secure images of players in the new kits and produce an album that grows in size every year.
The stickers will go on sale here.
What can we expect from the new 2025 Panini Premier League album?
Very little is actually confirmed but we do know it will feature all 20 Premier League teams including a return for Leicester City and Southampton, as well as a first appearance for Ipswich Town for over a decade. Burnley, Luton and Sheffield United will not appear in the album after their relegation.
Last year’s album featured 636 stickers covering full squads, kits, club badges, Next Gen stars, ‘World Class’ stickers and some famous retired players. The album also introduced different colour ‘parallel’ cards for club captains. The rarer cards for each club captain replaced the traditional silver shiny material with coloured blue, orange, purple and green cards that were more difficult to find.
The parallel stickers are expected to return for the new album when it goes on sale in the UK.
A transfer update will probably arrive in March after the transfer window closes at the end of January. It usually includes around 48 stickers featuring players who have moved clubs or who didn’t appear in the original album.
