The Champions League is widely considered as the most prestigious club tournament in world football and has been an annual event on the continent since 1955.
Those who are often regarded as the greatest players ever to play the game have at least one of these winners' medals tucked away in their trophy cabinet.
Some though, have hogged the limelight in this competition, winning multiple titles and truly dominating their era of the game in Europe, with five players even managing to lift the prestigious trophy a remarkable six times.
Now that the 2025-26 season is underway, Sports Mole takes a closer look at which players have won the European Cup/Champions League at least five times.
