The European Champion Clubs' Cup which the winner receives

The UEFA Champions League is a seasonal association football competition established in 1956. The UEFA Champions League is open to the league champions of all UEFA member associations (except Liechtenstein, which has no league competition), as well as to the clubs finishing from second to fourth position in the strongest leagues. Prior to the 1992–93 season, the tournament was named the European Cup.[1] Originally, only the champions of their respective national league and the previous winners of the competition were allowed to participate. However, this was changed in 1997 to allow the runners-up of the stronger leagues to compete as well, but under the new format the previous winners of the competition did not automatically qualify until the rules were changed in 2005.[2] Real Madrid won the inaugural competition in the 1956 European Cup Final.

If a team wins the UEFA Champions League three times in a row, or five times overall, they are allowed to keep the European Champion Clubs' Cup and a new one is commissioned.[3] As of 2008, five teams have earned this privilege; Real Madrid, Ajax, Bayern Munich, Milan and Liverpool.[4]

Real Madrid hold the record for the most victories, winning the competition nine times since its inception. They have also won the competition the most times in a row, winning it five times from 1956 to 1960. Benfica and Juventus have been runners-up the most times, with both teams losing the final five times. Spain have provided the most champions, with 12 wins, all from just two teams.[5] Italy and England have produced 11 winners between three and four clubs respectively. English teams were controversially banned from the competition for five years following the events at Heysel in 1985.[6] The current champions are FC Barcelona who beat Manchester United 2–0 in the 2009 Final.

Note also that the 1956-57 season is included in the count despite the Munich air disaster all but effectively negating English participation for that season.

  11. ^ Although AS Monaco FC are a self described Monegasque football club, they qualified through the French leagues, thus the French flag is displayed.
  12. ^ Romanian clubs did not enter the inaugural competition.
  13. ^ The nation of Serbia first officially entered the European Cup during the 2006-07 season after the dissolution of the state of Serbia and Montenegro (itself formed after the dissolution of SFR Yugoslavia before it). However, for the purposes of this table, Red Star Belgrade and Partizan Belgrade were eligible entrants from the 1955-56 season to the 1991-92 seasons inclusive as clubs competing in the Yugoslav First League, and from the 1997-98 season to the 2005-06 season inclusive as clubs competing in the Serbia and Montenegro Superliga (the interim period, from the 1992-93 season to the 1996-97 season inclusive, had no eligible competitor from the Serbia and Montenegro Superliga for which any club now competing in the Serbian SuperLiga could enter). Furthermore, since clubs that formerly competed in the Yugoslav First League that do not now play in the Serbian SuperLiga gained entry to the European Cup during the 1958-59, 1967-68, 1971-72, 1972-73, 1974-75, 1975-76, 1979-80, 1982-83, 1985-86 and 1987-88 seasons, it may be more useful to consider a count of competitions entered as ten lower than that given as, technically, no team now competing under the nation of Serbia entered the competition at that time.
  14. ^ No Greek clubs entered the competition from the 1955-56 season to the 1957-58 season inclusive, and Olympiakos withdrew from the 1958-59 season for political reasons.
