Real Madrid: 15-Time European Champions

No club has won the European Cup/Champions League more times than Real Madrid. The Spanish giants have lifted the trophy 15 times, establishing a record that remains comfortably ahead of AC Milan's seven titles.

With Mourinho now back at the helm, Madrid will hope to revive their European pedigree and challenge for a 16th crown.

PSG Eye Third Consecutive Champions League Title

Paris Saint-Germain have transformed their European fortunes in remarkable fashion. After winning their maiden Champions League crown in 2024-25, PSG successfully defended their title in 2025-26.

PSG will therefore begin the 2026-27 campaign chasing an extraordinary third consecutive Champions League title.

According to UEFA's official records, 22 clubs have won the European Cup or Champions League. Real Madrid lead the list with 15 titles, followed by AC Milan with seven, while Liverpool and Bayern Munich have six each. Barcelona have won the competition five times.
