FootballPer Sportskeeda, Carlo Ancelotti is the most decorated manager in the history of the Champions League, with four titles - two with AC Milan and two with Real Madrid. However, he has won the CWC thrice, missing out in 2003 when it was cancelled.
The French manager led Real Madrid to three consecutive Champions League triumphs but won only two CWC crowns. He briefly left the club after his third victory and Santiago Solari coached Madrid for the 2018 edition, which they won.
11 managers are tied on one trophy each, including the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson, who won it in 2009, Luis Enrique with Barcelona in 2015, Hansi Flick with Bayern in 2021, Jürgen Klopp with Liverpool in 2020, and Thomas Tuchel with Chelsea in 2022.
Jose Mourinho has never won the competition despite winning two UCLs - on both occasions, he left the club immediately after winning at Europe's highest level.
