2021–22 Topps Inception UEFA Club Competitions builds on the success of Topps’ debut Inception Soccer release, expanding beyond the UEFA Champions League to also include players from the Europa League and Europa Conference League. Maintaining its reputation for bold artwork and premium card quality, Inception 2021–22 showcases a deeper and more diverse player lineup across all UEFA tournaments.

The 108-card base set is thematically divided into six sections — First XI, Highlights, Star Quality, Emerging Stars, Succession, and Legacy — covering everything from modern icons and breakout rookies to enduring legends. Parallels are available in six levels, numbered to /99, /49, /25, /10, /5, and 1/1.

Autographs and memorabilia take centre stage once again, featuring both individual signatures and multi-player formats, including dual and quad book autographs alongside patch autograph cards. Combining artful design, a premium finish, and a checklist spanning UEFA’s elite competitions, Topps Inception 2021–22 solidified the brand as one of the most visually distinctive and collectible football card lines in the hobby.
