2026 World Cup album: without Neymar, check out the Brasileirão players who won stickers

Copa’s sticker album for Mundo 2026 hit the market this Thursday with 112 pages and 980 stickers, the largest edition in the product’s history. Pre-sales were already available on the Panini website, and from this date physical sales began. The tournament takes place from June 11th and brings together 48 teams that have their athletes registered in the collection.

Dezenove players active in Brasileirão are present on the stickers, distributed among seven clubs. The production of the stickers began before some players transferred, which is why certain athletes appear on their old teams in the edition.

Flamengo dominates representation of Série A

Flamengo leads with seven players on the album. The red-black delegation is made up of three Uruguayans — Giorgian from Arrascaeta, Guillermo Varela and Nicolás from Cruz — two Brazilians, one Colombian and one Ecuadorian. Lucas Paquetá, who left the club for abroad, appears with the Flamengo shirt on his sticker.

Atlético-MG continues with four representatives, all selectable by their countries. Alan Franco and Ángelo Preciado are Ecuadorians, Junior Alonso and Alan Minda complete the representation of the Minas Gerais team. Palmeiras enters the list with three athletes: the Paraguayan Gustavo Gómez, the Colombian Jhon Arias and the also Paraguayan Ramón Sosa.

The other clubs divide the remaining players. Grêmio, Corinthians, Internacional and São Paulo complement the distribution of the 19 Brasileirão athletes in the 2026 album.

Paraguai surpasses Brasil in number of representatives

Entre the nationalities, Paraguai is the country with the largest number of players in Série A present in the album. Seis Paraguayan athletes play in Brazilian football and gained space in the Panini collection.

Neymar, one of the biggest names in national football, was absent from the edition. The player was present on Copa’s last three albums and remains in anticipation of the final call-up for the Brazilian team. Sua’s absence marks a contrast with the presence of others frequently called up by their national teams.

Prominent Jogadores like Rafael Borré, from Internacional, were left out of the collection. Flaco López and Joaquín Piquerez, both from Palmeiras, will also not have stickers despite their importance to their teams.

Calendário call-ups and championship break

Brasileirão takes a break against Mundo’s Copa on May 31st, in the 18th round. The teams must deliver their final lists to Fifa on May 30th, exactly one day before the interruption of the national championship.

Panini held the official launch of the album on the 25th at São Paulo. The product hits the market with high expectations among collectors and fans who follow the preparation of the 48 teams for the tournament.
