'We have to do more' - UEFA chief Ceferin admits not enough is being done to fight racism

Following several high-profile incidents, the president of Europe's governing body says that more needs to be done on and off the pitch

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has said that nobody is doing enough to deal with the scourge of racism in the game.

Racism has long been a problem in football but the issue has become even more pronounced in recent months after a series of high-profile incidents in Europe.

In Italy, several players including Romelu Lukaku and Mario Balotelli have been the subjects of abuse from fans and in Balotelli's case, his own club's president.
