10 Football Players With The Most Trophies by footballflaver: 5:56pm On Jun 18, 2018
More often than not, we judge the success and greatness of a player by the number of trophies he has won during his career. Although this might not be an accurate way of measuring the caliber of a player, the world we live in is highly reliant on figures. As such, we can't ignore them.
So let's take a look at the top 10 players who have won the most trophies in world football. Know that the numbers listed represent the number of trophies players have won at the club level.
Football Players With the Most Trophies

Maxwell-37
Oleksandr Shovkovskiy-36
Ryan Giggs-35
Dani Alves-34
Kenny Dalglish-31
Zlatan Ibrahimovic-31
Vitor Baia-30
Lionel Messi-30
Andres Iniesta-30
Gerard Pique-29


10. Gerard Pique-29 (Manchester United and FC Barcelona)

The Spaniard is only 30 and has already won a sum of 29 trophies. Ever since his return to Catalonia, Pique has added an incredible 25 trophies to his resume. He still has a few years up his sleeves and may even end up on the top of this list if he continues to win trophies at the same rate.




9. Andres Iniesta-30 (FC Barcelona)

Iniesta has put in a player of the match performance in so many finals that it would be sad if he didn't make it on our list. The Spaniard, currently at age 33, is arguably one of the best midfielders to ever step foot on a pitch.
He is in fact the most decorated Spanish footballer of all time, even if you only consider his exploits with FC Barcelona. He has additional honors with the Spanish national team.



8. Lionel Messi-30 (FC Barcelona)

We all know that he was going to make this list. Arguably the GOAT, Lionel Messi has won a total of 30 trophies with Barcelona since coming on as a substitute on July 1st, 2004. At just age 30, the Barcelona prodigy is making headlines after headlines. His quick feet make it impossible for defenders to catch him when he's on the run. He scores whenever he wants to and doesn't mind assisting a fellow teammate every now and then.
The 5-time Ballon d’Or winner has won everything that there is to win in club football. However, the lack of an international honor still haunts him and he will be looking to set the record straight in Russia next summer.



7. Vitor Baia-30 (FC Porto and FC Barcelona)

Not many would have heard of the name of this former Barcelona and Porto goalkeeper. He was one of the few who stuck with the Portuguese club when their roster was plundered in 2004.
The Portuguese star spent most of his career with Porto barring a two-year spell with Barcelona. Baia won 25 trophies with the Dragons while adding another five during his stint with the Catalan giants.

6. Zlatan Ibrahimovic–31 (Ajax, Juventus, Inter, Barcelona, Milan, PSG, and Manchester United)

We all know who this bad boy is. Zalatan Ibrahimovic needs no introduction, introduction needs Zalatan. One of the most deadly goalscorers of this era, the Swede has conquered almost all of Europe. He has won at least one trophy every season since leaving his native Sweden in 2001.
Despite having one of the best careers in history, the Swede may end up retiring without a Champions League trophy unless the Red Devils can put up an extraordinary show in the league this year.


5. Kenny Dalglish-31 (Celtic and Liverpool)

Known as Kenny King, this forward racked up an impressive 31 trophies during his club football career with Celtic and Liverpool. The Scott arrived at Liverpool with a record-breaking transfer fee of £440,000. He was worth all the money as he repaid this sum numerous times as a player and then as a manager.
He went on to guide Blackburn Rovers and Celtic to domestic glory as their manager.



4. Dani Alves-34 (Bahia, Sevilla, Barcelona, Juventus, and PSG)

Dani Alves left Barcelona with 23 major honors in eight years. The 34-year-old right back still remains the best at his position. To think that Barcelona allowed to let him leave on a free transfer. This will certainly go down as one of the worst business decisions carried out by the Catalan club, especially given that they failed to replace him with a proper alternative. This contributed heavily in the woeful season that they had.


3. Ryan Giggs-35 (Manchester United)

The Manchester United prodigy was one of the most decorated footballers for a long time. He has won more trophies than all but three clubs in England, having won an unprecedented 35 trophies during his long and illustrious first team career.
The Welshman made an impressive 963 appearances for the mighty Red Devils. He lifted an unbelievable 13 Premier League trophies during his career, a feat not matched by any other footballer in the world.


2. Oleksandr Shovkovskiy–36 (Dynamo Kiev)

Only a few players have made over 100 Champions League appearances without winning it. Along with Gianluigi Buffon and Zalatan Ibrahimovic, Oleksandr Shovkovskiy might never win it. The 43-year-old will have to comfort himself with one of his 14 Ukrainian Premier League titles instead.


1. Maxwell-37 (Cruzeiro, Ajax, Inter Milan, Barcelona, and Paris Saint-Germain)


From his Copa do Brasil victory with Cruzeiro in 2000 to his most recent success with PSG in the Coupe de France, left-back Maxwell has carved out an unlikely reputation as a serial trophy hoarder. Not many would have expected the 37-year-old to lead the charts given that the world has witnessed some truly magical footballers. But despite their skill and talent, none could match the trophy haul of the Brazilian.
Maxwell has won an outstanding 37 trophies during his 17-year career, which started with Cruzeiro in 2000.
The Portuguese sensation Cristiano Ronaldo, the four-time Ballon d'Or winner, has only won 20 tophies so far, 17 less than Maxwell. But this does not mean that the Brazilian is a superior footballer. It just shows that he has been a part of some of the most successful football teams on the planet.

Old article, Dani Alves tops that list now. Imagine them referring to CR7 as a 4-time Ballon d'or winner...this gives the article away as old. Would post a link of Dani Alves now. Here it is. Besides guys like Messi, Iniesta and CR7 have added to their titles since last year.
