Panini Softcover Album

The best players, the best teams, the passion of fans from all over the world, tradition and innovation. These are just some of the ingredients that make the FIFA World Cup™ the biggest and most exciting event in football, eagerly awaited every four years. These are the same qualities that Panini has brought to its collection of official stickers since 1970 for each edition of the tournament.

To celebrate this historic edition of the tournament in Qatar, taking place for the first time in November and December, in some incredible futuristic locations, Panini is proud to announce the launch of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ sticker collection.

The 32 teams that have qualified for the final phase of the tournament are represented by 18 official players, strips and badges. Each line-up includes a combination of experienced players, those at the top of their game and others who are playing in a major tournament for the first time.

You'll also find a team photo, the football federation logo, plus details of each country's journey to the final and the tournament schedule.

Alongside the team pages, there are two sections specially designed to help collectors experience the spirit of the FIFA World Cup™: one celebrating the incredible architecture of the stadiums and another recalling the history of the event, produced in collaboration with the FIFA Football Museum. And of course, as with any classic Panini FIFA World Cup™ collection, there are stickers featuring the trophy and the official symbols of the event.

The collection consists of a total of 638 stickers, including 50 special stickers. In addition, for the first time in a FIFA World Cup™ collection, fans can find additional Panini Stickers – super rare stickers randomly inserted into the packs. These stickers stand out from the main collection because they feature an image of the player in action. 20 players have been selected, both the Legends and the Rookies, and each is represented in different colour variations.

*Sticker, sheets, envelopes and envelope boxes are sold separately*
