First to Win All Major European Trophies

Lore & Background

Juventus have won a record 36 Italian league titles, 15 Coppa Italia trophies, and nine Supercoppa Italiana trophies, making them the leading club in the historical Italian Football Federation (FIGC) classification. Internationally, the club has won two European Cup/UEFA Champions League titles, one European Cup Winners' Cup, three UEFA Cups, two Intercontinental Cups, two UEFA Super Cups, and one UEFA Intertoto Cup. With eleven international trophies, Juventus occupy the sixth position in Europe and 12th position worldwide for most confederation titles; they are placed fourth in the all-time Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) ranking, having obtained the highest coefficient score during seven seasons since its introduction in 1979, the most for an Italian team in both cases and joint second overall in the last cited. Founded as Sport-Club Juventus, the club established itself as a major force in Italian football during the 1930s and at international stage during mid-1970s. They enjoyed a period of sustained national and European success under Giovanni Trapattoni between the late 1970s and mid-1980s, winning six league titles, as well as, the UEFA Cup (1976–77), the Cup Winners' Cup (1983–84) and the European Champions' Cup (1984–85), becoming the first club to win all three major UEFA competitions. With additional triumphs in 1984 European Super Cup and 1985 Intercontinental Cup, I Bianconeri became also the first in football history to complete a clean sweep of international trophies; an improved record by winning the 1999 UEFA Intertoto Cup, and remained the only club to have won every official UEFA men's club tournament until the first 2022 Europa Conference League final.

In Their Own Story

Rain lashed against Heysel Stadium, turning the pitch into a slick canvas of mud and high tension. Inside the dressing room, captain Dino Zoff surveyed his squad with a calm that steadied them all. There were no rousing speeches, only the heavy silence of absolute focus. When they stepped onto that hallowed turf, the world watched not just for a trophy, but for a coronation. As the final whistle blew against Liverpool, the realization washed over the Bianconeri: they had done it. They had conquered every major stage Europe offered. The roar of the crowd was a distant echo to the profound weight of history settling on their shoulders; Juventus was now the first club to hold all the keys to the European kingdom.
