List of Teams To Have Won The Three Main European Club Competitions
To date, only four teams have won all three main UEFA club competitions (European Champions Clubs' Cup-UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Cup-Europa League):
- Juventus, after their European Champions Cup win in 1985.
- Ajax, after their UEFA Cup win in 1992.
- Bayern Munich, after their UEFA Cup win in 1996.
- Chelsea, after their UEFA Europa League win in 2013.
Juventus has received, in recognition of being the first side in European football history to win all three major UEFA club competitions, The UEFA Plaque from the Union of European Football Associations in 1988.
Several Clubs have won two out of three of these competitions; of these clubs Real Madrid, Liverpool, Inter Milan, Porto, Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven all cannot win all three as they have not won the now retired UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. Anderlecht, Valencia, Tottenham Hotspur, Atlético Madrid, Parma require a UEFA Champions League to complete the set. AC Milan, Barcelona, Manchester United, Hamburg, Borussia Dortmund all require a UEFA Europa League to complete the set.

“Love’s boat has been shattered against the life of everyday. You and I are quits, and it’s useless to draw up a list of mutual hurts, sorrows, and pains.”
—Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
“Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“[holds her by the hand, silent] O mother, mother!
What have you done? Behold, the heavens do ope,
The gods look down, and this unnatural scene
They laugh at. O my mother, mother! O!
You have won a happy victory to Rome;
But, for your son, believe it—O, believe it—
Most dangerously you have with him prevailed,
If not most mortal to him.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Whoever considers morality the main objective of human existence, seems to me like a person who defines the purpose of a clock as not going wrong. The first objective for a clock, is, however, that it does run; not going wrong is an additional regulative function. If not a watch’s greatest accomplishment were not going wrong, unwound watches might be the best.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“The time to enjoy a European tour is about three weeks after you unpack.”
—George Ade (1866–1944)
“The adjustment of qualities is so perfect between men and women, and each is so necessary to the other, that the idea of inferiority is absurd.”
—“Jennie June” Croly 1829–1901, U.S. founder of the woman’s club movement, journalist, author, editor. Demorest’s Illustrated Monthly and Mirror of Fashions, p. 204 (August 1866)
