Previous Champions

The UEFA Cup, now the Europa League, has had some of the best clubs amongst its winners. 

Sevilla FC (Spain) - Without a doubt, the kings of the tournament with 7 titles (2006, 2007, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2020, 2023). Sevilla's (the 'Los Nervionenses') success in this tournament is unmatched anywhere else in football. Their association and success in this tournament are now seen as synonymous. It would seem unlikely at this point that there will be another winning journey similar to what Sevilla has been on. 

Atlético Madrid (Spain) - 3-time winners (2010, 2012, 2018), yes, certainly they are a European heavyweight. 

Chelsea FC & Manchester United (England) - Both clubs have had lifetime success lifting the trophy; Chelsea (2013, 2019) and Manchester United (2017) were able to hoist the trophy as champions as well. 

Juventus, Inter Milan, Feyenoord and Villarreal are other successful historic winners and further solidify there is a significant draw for the competition throughout Europe. 

The Europa League provides lower-tier clubs that did not qualify for the Champions League an opportunity to market themselves on a European stage and show they have superiority over their opponents.
