Real Madrid have 15. Who's next?

Since 1955, only 24 clubs have ever lifted the European Cup or Champions League trophy. A select few have done it multiple times. And one club — Real Madrid — sits so far above the rest that the gap feels almost mythological. Here is how the all-time table looks after PSG's second title in Budapest.

What makes Real Madrid's record so extraordinary is not just the number — it is the consistency across seven decades. From Di Stéfano in the 1950s to Benzema in 2022, Madrid have always found a way to make this competition their own.

PSG, with two titles in two years, are just getting started. Under Luis Enrique, they have the squad, the structure, and the hunger to keep winning. The gap between PSG and Barcelona — who sit on five — is 13 titles. But every dynasty starts somewhere.

And somewhere, in the history books, Real Madrid's 15 trophies sit untouched — waiting for someone to even come close.
