The album is not actually complete yet. The sticker album will feature all teams competing in the tournament including England, Scotland, France, Spain and hosts Germany. However there are three spots still to be filled before the album is launched after the final places will be taken by playoff winners. The playoffs, featuring teams including Wales, Iceland, Greece and Ukraine, will take place in March.
The squads have been picked in advance by former Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester United and Roma manager Jose Mourinho, who teamed up with Topps for the launch of the new album.
Topps says the album will be sold in supermarkets and stores with more information set to be released closer to launch.
