The 8 English clubs with the most European silverware: Where do Chelsea rank? Chelsea have bolstered their European record by securing the Conference League title, but how do they stack up against England’s other elite clubs? European trophies are the ultimate prize for many English teams, with some clubs enjoying greater success than others through the years. Considering all European competitions, here are the eight English clubs with the most European titles. Note: when clubs are level on trophy count, rankings are determined by the most recent European triumph.
Nottingham Forest – 3 European Trophies After drawing with Leicester City, Nottingham Forest secured European qualification for the first time in 29 years. The club boasts a rich European legacy, having clinched consecutive European Cups in the late 1970s and early 1980s, plus the 1979-80 UEFA Super Cup, totaling three European trophies. Trophies: 2x Champions League, 1x UEFA Super Cup
Aston Villa – 3 European Trophies Aston Villa’s return to European competition feels fitting. They won the 1982 European Cup, along with the UEFA Super Cup and Intertoto Cup, bringing their European trophy count to three. Under Unai Emery’s leadership, another trophy seems within reach. Trophies: 1x Champions League, 1x UEFA Super Cup, 1x Intertoto Cup
West Ham United – 3 European Trophies West Ham may not have a Champions League title, but their recent 2023 Europa Conference League victory, sealed by Jarrod Bowen’s last-minute goal against Fiorentina, marks their modern European success. Bowen described the moment as emotional, saying, “I thought I was going to cry.” The Hammers also won the Cup Winners’ Cup and Intertoto Cup. Trophies: 1x Europa Conference League, 1x UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, 1x Intertoto Cup
Manchester City – 4 European Trophies Manchester City’s first European success came in 1969-70 with the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup against Gornik Zabrze. Under Pep Guardiola, they’ve added three more, including their historic 2022-23 Champions League win, driven by Rodri’s second-half goal against Inter Milan, for a total of four trophies. Trophies: 1x Champions League, 1x UEFA Super Cup, 1x FIFA Club World Cup, 1x UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup
Tottenham Hotspur – 4 European Trophies Tottenham’s recent Europa League triumph ties them with Manchester City at four European trophies. Despite a disappointing Premier League season, Ange Postecoglou’s side shone in Bilbao, securing their third Europa League/UEFA Cup title (previously won in 1972 and 1984). Their 1962-63 Cup Winners’ Cup victory completes their tally. For context, Arsenal have only two European trophies. Trophies: 3x Europa League/UEFA Cup, 1x UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup
3. Manchester United – 8 European Trophies Manchester United narrowly missed their ninth European title, losing to Tottenham in the final. Their last European triumph was the 2017 Europa League under Jose Mourinho, defeating Ajax. Sir Alex Ferguson drove most of their success, securing six European titles, including two Champions Leagues. Matt Busby claimed their first in 1968 with the European Cup. Trophies: 3x Champions League, 1x Europa League, 1x UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, 1x UEFA Super Cup, 1x FIFA Club World Cup
2. Chelsea – 10 European Trophies Chelsea excel in European competitions, even during domestic struggles. With two Champions Leagues, two Europa Leagues, and other continental honors, they rank as England’s second-most successful club in Europe. Trophies: 2x Champions League, 2x Europa League, 2x UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, 2x UEFA Super Cup, 1x Conference League, 1x FIFA Club World Cup
1. Liverpool – 14 European Trophies Liverpool dominate as England’s most successful club in Europe with 14 trophies. Their haul includes six Champions Leagues, three Europa Leagues, four Super Cups, and one Club World Cup. Under Arne Slot’s current form, another European title seems likely soon. Trophies: 6x Champions League, 3x Europa League, 4x UEFA Super Cup, 1x FIFA Club World Cup
