Xavi (Spain)
Xavi is now the head coach of Barcelona, and not so long ago he was the protagonist of a club that was almost unrealistic to beat. In the late noughties and early ‘10s, the Blue-Granatas were crushing everyone in their path. The Spaniard was a fundamental player in the midfield who possessed supreme football intelligence and skill. When you consider that Xavi also caught the not-so-fruitful times of his club at the turn of the century, so his 91 Champions League victories are particularly valuable, as the Catalans were not always a team that could beat any opponent with their eyes closed.
Karim Benzema (France)
Benzema is another representative of the Madrid conglomerate, who literally occupied our rating. It is not surprising, as the ‘royal’ club has long been the hegemon of this tournament. And in the last decade, so and so often won in this competition.
Karim came to Real Madrid as far from the first violin, and more as an assistant to Ronaldo and Iguain, but over time it was he who took the burden of responsibility for the result, and in the three victories under Zidane it was Benzema’s contribution that was the most impressive. The Frenchman eventually got close to a hundred wins in Europe’s most prestigious football tournament, and in recognition of his play he won the Ballon d’Or at the end of last year.
Lionel Messi (Argentina)
Everyone knows who Messi is and what he can do on the pitch, but he hasn’t been playing for Barcelona for the last couple of seasons and the Parisian phase of his career hasn’t been as productive as everyone wanted it to be. Therefore, Lionel’s move to Inter Miami definitely puts an end to the number of victories of the Argentine within the group stage of the Champions League. At least for the next few years for sure. Although Lionel still has the strength to continue playing in a strong European league, but he himself has opted for the North American football market, and here we can only wish the South American player good luck.
Thomas Muller (Germany)
Muller has been playing for Bayern for his entire career and has no intention of ending his career so far, which has already been more than meaningful. Muller is the real engine of the Munich club, so with him, movement in the midfield is almost always assured. Thomas is practically indispensable in the Champions League, as he is in his fourth decade and can do his best in short cup tournaments. The midfielder is among those who have been favoured by all of Munich’s coaches. Muller is now just one win short of the round number in this tournament, so there is no doubt that the midfielder will reach the jubilee in the coming season and move on to his second hundred wins.
Iker Casillas (Spain)
Casillas has been inextricably linked with Real Madrid for over 20 years and has brought the club many regalia, as well as being a reliable last frontier for the legendary Spanish team. Iker has a funny fate that has always loved him and even leaving football due to heart problems can in no way override the favour of fate, which allowed Iker to become who he really is.
Casillas got the chance to become the main goalkeeper of the team at the age of 18 and almost from the only chance he got. For all the time he played in the club and national team, Casillas never once gave doubts about his qualifications, and for several years in a row Iker was considered the strongest goalkeeper in the world on a par with Buffon. The Spaniard became the first player in the history of the tournament to break the milestone of 100 victories.
Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)
First place goes to the unrivalled Portuguese. He would love to put his name in all the ranks, but this is simply beyond the control of the average person. Cristiano has already proved everything to everyone and left to play in Saudi Arabia last year (although he promises to return to Europe). Needless to say, Cristiano will no longer be able to increase his personal tally of wins in the Champions League, but if that does happen, Ronaldo won’t raise the bar much. Although he doesn’t have any competitors in the distance yet.
