A stocking stuffer has one job: get pulled out on Christmas morning and not get tossed in a drawer by lunch. For football fans, that rules out the generic stuff. They can smell a "soccer-themed" gift from a mile away.
Everything below is officially licensed, under $25, sitting in our warehouse right now, and ships same day on weekday orders before noon ET.
Minix 12cm figures ($19.99)
Not a toy. The start of a shelf. Minix figures are officially licensed, about 12cm tall, and every fan has a player they'd want on their desk. We carry the largest Minix selection in the USA, so if their player exists, start here.
- The GOAT debate, settled by gifting both: Lionel Messi (Argentina) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal).
- Premier League: Mohamed Salah, Phil Foden, Cole Palmer and Son Heung-min.
- La Liga: Luka Modrić, Eduardo Camavinga and Gavi.
- Legends for the older fan: Pelé (Brazil), Diego Maradona and Alessandro Del Piero.
- USWNT: Alex Morgan.
Some players are down to the last few. Real Madrid's Mbappé and Courtois, Liverpool's Van Dijk and Barcelona's Raphinha are in single digits, and we can't promise a restock before Christmas.
3D crest puzzles ($14.99)
Officially licensed club and national team crests that build into a 3D piece for the shelf or wall. A fun Christmas afternoon project, and a better-looking result than another scarf. Pick Argentina, PSG or Club América.
Fan Ink beanies and caps ($19.99)
Officially licensed headwear that gets worn every matchday, not just on Christmas.
- Beanies for cold matchdays: FC Barcelona pom-pom, Juventus pom-pom and Club América cuffed.

Quick answers
What is a good stocking stuffer for a soccer fan? A Minix figure of their favorite player ($19.99) is the safest bet. It's officially licensed, collectible and personal to them.
Are Minix figures toys? They're collectibles. Most fans display them on a shelf or desk.
When should I order for Christmas? As early as you can. Licensed collectibles don't get restocked in December, and popular players sell out first.
