It would be nice if Beckett did a soccer piece and started including pricing information in their guides

Let me preface this by saying I'm not a soccer collector nor do I know much of the sport. My thought on this is that there are many leagues that the top soccer players play in and they do not play against each other except in international competitions like the Olympics and World Cup.
If I'm not mistaken, each league would have to give licensing to a card manufacturer and that manufacturer would have to pay a fee to each league for that license. I know the Champions League has the best club teams in the world play each other, perhaps a set can be made using this league. There would still be many fees that a card manufacturer would have to pay, but the products that they produce would have the big-name players in one set.
Baseball, football, and basketball have one major league that all the superstars play in. Less fees for the card makers, all the stars in one place
