Expressing his joy and nostalgia, Sinner reflected on his childhood days spent collecting Panini stickers and immersing himself in their comics. The tennis sensation eagerly anticipates the chance to engage with his fan base through the unique and personal touch that Panini’s products offer.

The first release under the Panini-Sinner collaboration will be a Panini Instant trading card commemorating Sinner’s climb to the summit of the ATP rankings. This exclusive trading card will make its debut on the Panini America platform, giving fans a chance to own a piece of tennis history. Following this milestone moment, Panini has grand plans to roll out a series of trading card collections dedicated to Sinner. These collections will feature rare memorabilia and limited-edition cards, making them prized possessions for fans worldwide.

As the curtains rise on this partnership, the stage is set for a flurry of releases scheduled for 2024 and beyond. Panini’s collaboration with Jannik Sinner promises to captivate fans and collectors alike with its unique and exciting offerings, solidifying Sinner’s legacy in the world of tennis collectibles.
