#3 FC Barcelona (Spain) - 34 titles
Barcelona are going through a very rough period. Amid questions being asked of the recruitment strategy and the management policies, Lionel Messi has asked to leave the club after a trophyless season. However, the fall feels more severe because of how successful the Blaugrana have been all throughout history and also in the 21st century.
Barcelona have won 34 titles since the turn of the century. Under Pep Guardiola they also fielded arguably the best club team in Europe in the 21st century.
They have won 10 La Liga titles and 6 Copa Del Reys in the last 20 years. Barcelona have also won the UEFA Champions League title on 4 occasions. They have won the UEFA Super Cup thrice as well in addition to winning the Supercopa de Espana 8 times.
They have also won the FIFA Club World Cup on 3 occasions. Barcelona might need some time to re-evaluate the path they're on right now but they will certainly bounce back or at least their storied history suggests so.
#2 Lincoln Red Imps FC (Gibraltar) - 40 titles
Lincoln Red Imps FC might be the least known name on the list but it's interesting to note that they hold the record for Europe's longest chronological unbeaten run which went on for 1959 days (over five years). The run saw the Lincoln Red Imps go without losing for 88 games from May 2009 to September 2014.
They have won 26 league titles in their history but 14 of them were amassed in successive seasons between 2003 and 2016. They are also the first team from Gibraltar to take part in the UEFA Champions League.
In addition to winning 17 league titles since the turn of the century, Lincoln Red Imps have also won 12 Rock Cups and 11 Pepe Reyes Cups.
#1 Bayern Munich (Germany) - 40 titles
The current champions of Europe and continental treble winners Bayern Munich are the most successful club of the 21st century in Europe. Bayern's dominance in the Bundesliga has rarely been under threat. The Bavarians have been starving their top-flight contemporaries of trophies with an insatiable hunger.
They have won the Bundesliga 15 times since the 1999/2000 season and the DFB-Pokal 11 times. Bayern have been crowned Champions of Europe 3 times in the 21st century.
Bayern have won the Continental treble on two occasions- in the 2012-13 season and in the 2019-20 season where they won the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and the UEFA Champions League.
