When it comes to European football dominance, no club has done it quite like Real Madrid. Over the years, the club has been unprecedented in the Champions league and no club comes even close to their legacy.
The club was founded back in 1902; since then, they have consistently been a powerhouse in European football. That said, in this piece, we will find out how many Champions League titles Madrid has won.
For those unaware, Real Madrid has won the UEFA Champions League 15 times. It is worth noting that the competition was called the European Cup before being renamed in 1992. Moreover, the club won the Champions League for five consecutive years from 1956 to 1960.
Additionally, Madrid is the only club in the modern era to win the competition three years in a row, which they did from 2016 to 2018. This spell came under Zinedine Zidane, and the squad boasted the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale, Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane, and more notable players. It’s safe to say that their success is not just built on talent, but also a winning mentality that sets them apart.
