Topps Is Back: New Premier League Collection 2025/26 Brings Ultra-Rare Cards, Stunning Parallels & Golden Boot Tins
Topps Premier League 2025/26 – The Most Ambitious Football Card Set Ever?
Topps is officially back as the exclusive trading card partner of the Premier League, and the 2025/26 set is nothing short of a game-changer. Whether you're a seasoned collector, a casual fan, or just discovering The Hobby, this product line is designed to offer something thrilling in every rip.
🏆 Base Cards, But Not So Basic
This season’s foundation is built on a checklist of 280 players – that’s 14 from each of the 20 Premier League clubs – plus team badge cards. It’s the perfect start for collectors who love building full squads and learning the faces behind the shirts.
What’s new? Each pack includes a mix of base and insert cards, and thanks to a rainbow of vibrant parallels – including retail-exclusive Blue (1:2 packs), Yellow (1:4), and Green (1:8) – no two rips feel the same.
🌈 Parallels: Every Collector’s Obsession
Parallel cards are alternate-colour versions of standard cards, and this year they’re more exciting than ever:
- Retail Parallels: Blue, Yellow, Green
- Display Box Parallels: Mini Diamonds, numbered
- Hobby-Only: Rainbow Foils, low-numbered or even 1-of-1s
Holiday exclusives like Gold Rainbow Lazers and Festive Freeze parallels add even more seasonal flavor for 2025.
🃏 Insert Sets: Creative, Collectible, and Fun
Topps is flexing its creative muscles this year with some of the most diverse insert sets ever released in a football collection:
- Generation Now: Rising stars of the new era
- Throwback Threads: Retro kit vibes
- Full Force & Beast Mode: Power and energy in motion
- Chrome King: Legends printed on premium stock
- Gold Lion: 1-per-box premium gold inserts
Most inserts also come with parallels – from Pink Sparkles to Foilfractor 1-of-1s. In short: every insert could be a monster pull.
