2026 World Album: The Challenges of Completing the Collection This Year

This year, collectors will face new challenges when trying to complete the official album of the 2026 World Cup, which is expected to be the largest to date.

The challenge of the most sought-after stickers

The FIFA 2026 World Cup album, to be held in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, features a new format with 48 teams, increasing both the album's size and the number of stickers needed to complete it, totaling 112 pages and 980 stickers.

Effects on distribution and prices

Traders warn that obtaining the most sought-after stickers, such as those of star players, national team badges, and stadiums, will be more difficult this year, with possibly only one coming out per box. This has led to an increase in unit prices and the difficulty of completing the collection.

Costs and challenges for collectors

The 2026 World Cup album in Colombia will have prices that surpass the previous edition, costing over $2 million to complete the collection. The prices of packs and boxes have significantly increased, making this hobby one of the most expensive of the year for football fans.
