Panini are the official provider of the 2026 World Cup sticker book, and three cards could net those lucky enough to find them $100,000 or more.

With the 2026 tournament expanded to 48 teams, this sticker collection is the largest produced for a World Cup.

There are 980 different blank spaces to fill in the book, and three one-of-one cards are now being sought out by a trading card company.

Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lamine Yamal Panini stickers could be bought for $100,000 or more​

Trading cards being sold for huge sums of money is nothing new, with a 1979 sticker of Argentinian footballing legend Diego Maradona sold at auction in 2021 for $555,000.

The Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lamine Yamal cards available this summer could also be sold for six figures if they are bought by the Dave & Adam’s trading card company.

They recently put out a post on X/Twitter explaining: “We want the Messi, Ronaldo, and Yamal Black 1/1 Stickers out of 2026 Panini FIFA World Cup.

“We will pay: $150,000 for the Lionel Messi, $100,000 for the Cristiano Ronaldo, $100,000 for the Lamine Yamal

“Email [email protected] if you pull/have one of these!! *These are only available in the US/Canada version*”


It is no surprise that the stickers in question are commanding such a high price.

At the ages of 38 and 41, there is a good chance that this will be the last World Cup either Messi or Ronaldo appears at.

Similarly, Yamal is perhaps the brightest young prospect in world football right now, and if he continues on his current trajectory, he too could be considered alongside the aforementioned duo as one of the all-time greats.

But as that Maradona sticker showed, holding on to the Messi or Ronaldo stickers yourself, if you are lucky enough to find them, may earn you even more than $100,000/$150,000 in years to come.
