Real Madrid currently have won 14 CL titles, do you think in the next 50-60 years, any club could have overtaken them in the record or they’d continue to reign?

Their team is currently in transition, but with assembly of young stars like Vini, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Endrick, Camavinga, Tchouameni, Valverde, Militao, Guler and potentially Davies + Mbappe in 2024 may get them more CL wins in this decade alone!

Do you think any team can overtake them in most CLs won by our lifetime or is the gap too big to overcome?

    Bayern, Real and Barsa also appear among anyone’s list on the UCL contenders for the next 15 years. Heck I’d even pick them in my top 5 along with probably City and maybe Liverpool. That shows not only domestic consistency but European’s, which means clubs’ consistency as a whole. It’s not the league’s fault at all.

    My argument is that their domestic consistency assists their European consistency. If Man City and Liverpool dominate the EPL for the next 20 years, they will be able to have consistency in Europe too. At the moment English teams do well in the ECL by virtue of being in the most competitive league. There have been four different English teams that have won the ECL in approx the last 20 years.

    I just wanted to put some perspective there. La Liga is not a walk in the park, nor a walk in the park as you stated helps you precisely. See PSG, Benfica, Ajax nowadays

    I did understate the quality of the Spanish league in relation to Europe and I shouldn’t have done that, although I still stand by my general points.

    I still stand by my comments regarding clubs that have monopolies over their leagues, but I do accept that without big money being a monopoly doesn’t help a club in Europe (as per Ajax and Benfica), but also that big money alone doesn’t guarantee success (as per PSG. Although it would be a surprise if don’t they eventually win a UCL).
