Remember Panini sticker albums? The Panini Style Facepack brings real players’ faces into FM27 with that look, with a coloured background and the feel of sticker photos. It is a handmade face pack by Jackioo (Daniel1974), who took and edited every photo himself. It already covers several complete leagues and every 2026 World Cup team.

Leagues in the Panini Style Facepack
The author works alone and adds leagues with each version. Right now these are complete:
- England, Spain and Italy: the Premier League, LaLiga and Serie A.
- Germany and France: for example, the Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga and Ligue 1.
- Netherlands and Belgium: the Eredivisie, Keuken Kampioen Divisie and Jupiler Pro League.
- Other leagues: Austria, Scotland, Switzerland, Turkey and the Saudi league.
- 2026 World Cup: finally, every World Cup team.
Also, for the 2026/27 season there are already clubs from other leagues, such as the English Championship, Greece and Hungary. However, the Portuguese league is not included yet, so Portuguese clubs keep their normal faces.

Panini Style Facepack download
The link is the author’s own, on Mega, for version 0.09. The pack is over 1 GB, so the download may take a while. Then you need WinRAR or 7-Zip to extract it.
Download – Panini Style Facepack (Mega)
- First, extract the .rar.
- Then copy the faces folder to
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 27\graphics\faces. If thegraphicsfolder does not exist, create it. - Next, restart FM27. The faces load by themselves when the game opens again.
- Finally, open the profile of a player from one of the included leagues to see the new face.
Things to watch
The pack is still growing, so not every club has new faces. If you use another face pack for the same players, the images may get mixed up. So pick one style per league. Also, the author takes requests for clubs and leagues in future versions. Finally, for players without a Panini face, use the DF11 faces, and for newgens, NG_Regens.
