Joao Paulo World Cup 2026 Sticker

Joao Paulo is one of the biggest stars of the World Cup 2026, and his sticker is one of the most wanted in the entire Panini album. As a Cape Verde player, his sticker sits inside the Cape Verde team set, codes CPV1 to CPV20, alongside his teammates.

Panini prints every sticker in roughly equal numbers, so the Joao Paulo sticker isn't 'short-printed'. What makes it hard to get is demand: everyone wants it and almost nobody gives it up.
