Question about Football/soccer collecting

[HockeyDuck73]

HI, i've been a REAL FOOTBALL fan for 15+ years but have never been able to really get into collecting because to be honest, being an American i didn't think it is possible or easy (compared to hockey or basketball collecting).

How easy is it to collect and does upper deck have the same sets for soccer like SPx or SP Authentic for example, because i tried to find some online and couldn't..

Any info would be appreciated!

You are right, it's more difficult to collect soccer than basketball, hockey etc.

The only sets Upper Deck have these days are MLS. They used to have some Manchester United sets a couple of years ago.

I think the world leading company in terms of soccer right now is Panini, they have collections from all over the world, between cards and stickers they issue more than 50 new sets every year.
