WINNING THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE IS ONE OF THE HIGHEST HONOURS IN WORLD FOOTBALL AND ONLY A HANDFUL OF PLAYERS HAVE WON IT MORE THAN ONCE
Dylan Appolis
EUROPEAN KINGS

Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to win five Champions League titles, lifting his maiden trophy in 2008 during his time with Premier League outfit Manchester United before going on to claim a further four with Real Madrid in 2014, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

But Los Blancos' triumph in the 2021-22 Champions League against Liverpool saw Karim Benzema, Luka Modrić and Dani Carvajal draw level with their former teammate on the same number of European titles.

Meanwhile, eight players have managed to win it four times, with Toni Kroos and Casemiro appearing in five Champions League-winning seasons, but only participating in four finals.

The likes of Gareth Bale, Isco, and Marcelo have featured in four final wins but failed to make an appearance off the bench in their 2021-22 triumph.
