Former and current stars from the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, AC Milan and Ajax dominate the list, but who will come out on top? It is well known that Real Madrid has won the Champions League trophy more times than any other club. The Royal has won the billion dollar ball no fewer than fourteen times. AC Milan is the pursuer with seven, while Liverpool and Bayern Munich have won the big-eared cup six times.
Real Madrid has by far the most titles to its name, but which players have won the Champions League the most?
Players who have won the most Champions League trophies
Real’s iconic left winger Paco Gento currently holds the record for most UCL titles. In eighteen years he won six trophies at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Al Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo is tied for second with five UCL trophies, won in his time playing at Manchester United and Real Madrid. He joins AC Milan legends Alessandro Costacurta, Paolo Maldini and Clarence Seedorf, as well as other Real powerhouses Hector Rial and Marquitos.
Real players dominate this list – which is understandable as the club has won the most UCL titles. Daniel Carvajal, Isco, Luka Modric and Marcelo each have five Champions League titles, while former Barcelona stars Lionel Messi, Xavi and Andrés Iniesta have four each.
Liverpool heroes of the 1980s Kenny Dalglish, Graeme Souness and Alan Hansen all have three Champions League medals to their credit, although the main European club trophy was still called the European Cup 1 at the time.
