24 entries · verified 2026-07-20 · free · from the Ball IQ football team
The European Cup, rebranded the UEFA Champions League in 1992, is the most prestigious prize in club football — and a handful of clubs have made it their own. This page ranks every club to have won it, by number of titles, from Real Madrid's record haul down to the one-time winners.
Real Madrid stand far clear at the top: they won the first five editions in a row from 1956 and have kept adding to the tally ever since, more than doubling the count of their nearest rivals. AC Milan are the most successful of the chasing pack, ahead of the modern powerhouses of Bayern Munich and Liverpool.
