Never a fan of obeying the rules, the AC Milan striker opted to fill every position with head shots of himself rather than include his team-mates. Perhaps the likes of Andrea Pirlo and Daniele De Rossi didn't fancy swapping with the 23-year-old.
The former Manchester City striker posted the picture of the sticker album on his Facebook page along with the message 'Why always me?', a phrase made famous from when he unveiled a t-shirt with those same words after scoring against Manchester United.
Italy's next game in Group D is against Costa Rica on Friday.
