Phil Foden snubbed in new England Euro 2024 sticker album as shock uncapped Championship player included

Phil Foden has been snubbed in the new England Euro 2024 sticker album.

Ahead of Euro 2024, Topps have won the rights from Panini to produce collectable stickers for the tournament.

On their official website, Topps have enlisted the help of legendary manager Jose Mourinho, it said: “None other than "The Special One" José Mourinho takes up the challenge and becomes the coach for the UEFA EURO 2024™ Collectibles from Topps. He takes on our team and prepares everything for a great tournament.”

Despite his fine form this season for Manchester City and England, Foden has been snubbed.

Foden's City teammate John Stones was also left out.

However, there is a place for defender Luke Thomas, who joined Middlesbrough on loan from Sheffield United in January.

Foden will be disappointed that he has been snubbed by Topps as he has previously admitted that he is a fan of collecting stickers.

He told SPORTbible: “As a kid me and my brother would always [be] collecting everything to do with stickers. Every collection and trading things.

“I still do collections now with my son putting them in and what not just like I used to. I got myself the other day and my son was like, ‘Aw, there’s you daddy!’”.

During an interview with The Telegraph, Foden’s girlfriend Becca Cooke said: “He’s obsessed with these stickers at the moment. We’d been to the zoo this week and I popped into Morrison’s on the way home and had to ring him because I saw they had a big box of stickers there.

“We’ll be driving along and he’s like, ‘Stop, they sell stickers there. Go on Bec, can you nip into that shop and get me every pack they’ve got. I don’t want them to know it’s me’.”

Foden’s mother, Claire added: “Me and his dad FaceTimed him when he was away with England last month and he’s sat there in his room doing his sticker books.

“I think he’s got about four on the go. Panini, Match Attax. It’s hysterical. It’s a good thing, don’t get me wrong, but that’s how obsessed he is about football.”
