Europe's football leagues are the planet's richest and can afford to pay the most money to the biggest stars. UEFA boss Aleksander Ceferin told Italy's La Repubblica daily that he was holding urgent talks with the continent's biggest leagues to figure out what can be done. Serie A and most other European leagues were originally supposed to have finished in May. Most European leagues are supposed to start their 2019-20 seasons at the end of August. Gravina did not explain why he was talking to the world football governing body and not the European one headed by Ceferin.
