World Cup
Harry Maguire sells stickers in New York after Tuchel snub
England defender Harry Maguire was photographed in New York City this week selling Panini World Cup stickers, a low‑key response to his omission from Thomas Tuchel’s England squad for the tournament. The Premier League veteran joined fellow England stars such as Cole Palmer in the bustling sticker market.
Maguire moved through the crowded streets of Manhattan with a tray of Panini sticker packs, offering them directly to passersby. He kept a low profile, focusing on the transaction rather than media attention.
Cole Palmer, another England international, was also present at the same stall, handling the same collectible items. Both players engaged with fans eager to complete their World Cup sticker albums.
The World Cup atmosphere in New York has turned the city’s public spaces into informal markets for the popular Panini collectibles. Fans lined up to purchase the stickers, hoping to secure rare player images before the tournament’s official launch.
Normally tasked with defending the Three Lions’ goal, Maguire now finds himself managing the rush for the same icons in sticker form. His presence highlights how the tournament’s popularity extends into everyday commerce.
