Money comes from the fans, the overpriced tickets, the investors and goes on.
The last couple years, players started making changes in their contracts, by adding numbers of games they will play per season. Still, this does not change the calendar and the demand for more football!

I always remembered football starting September and ending June/summer, we used to have transfers, rumours and friendlies apart with Euro or World Cup. Now I see it as all year long, and I can't follow the whole thing, looks more of a chore.
Ask the players if they want to keep this calendar and add more.
