10 Reasons Real Madrid Are The Best Side In Europe

8. The History And Prestige

One of the main reasons why Real Madrid should be considered the best side in Europe is quite simply their impeccable European record. They have won 10 Champions League titles, their latest coming at the end of last season to cap off a fantastic performance in Europe. The next closest team is AC Milan who have won seven, but do not look like adding to that total any time soon. Although Real have had a mixed few seasons in European competitions, their dominance over the Champions League since its admission into the European calendar makes them the clear leaders in European football. However, it is not just in Europe that Real Madrid have proven why their are the greatest club football side. They have won 10 more La Liga titles than bitter rivals Barcelona, proving them to be the one of the most successful clubs in European league football history. To be so dominant for over a century in both league and European football there is no one that can argue they are not the greatest European side ever.
