Which club has won the most Champions League titles?
Real Madrid has won the most European Cup and Champions League titles, with 15. They won the first five tournaments in a row, from 1956 to 1960.
Real Madrid's early dominance was led by stars such as Alfredo Di Stéfano and Ferenc Puskás. After a long gap, they won again in 1966, then in 1998, 2000 and 2002. More recently, they won four titles in five seasons between 2014 and 2018, including three in a row from 2016 to 2018, the first team to do so in the Champions League era.
Their 14th title came in 2022 and their 15th in 2024, when they beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in the final at Wembley Stadium in London. Real Madrid's record in finals is remarkable, having won the vast majority of the finals they have played.
