Chelsea Makes History as First Club to Win All Major UEFA Trophies

On May 28, 2025, Chelsea Football Club etched their name in the annals of European football history by defeating Real Betis 4-1 in the UEFA Conference League final in Poland. This victory, announced by renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, marked Chelsea as the first club to win all four major UEFA club competitions: the Champions League, Europa League, Cup Winners’ Cup, and now the Conference League.

Chelsea’s journey to this milestone began with their first Champions League triumph in 2012 under Roberto Di Matteo, followed by another in 2021. They secured the Europa League in 2013 and 2019, and the Cup Winners’ Cup in 1971 and 1998. The Conference League, introduced in 2021, was the final piece of the puzzle, completed under Enzo Maresca’s management. Despite initial skepticism about competing in UEFA’s third-tier tournament, Chelsea’s dominant run—remaining unbeaten throughout—silenced critics.

Fans celebrated the "Pride of London," with posts highlighting Chelsea’s unparalleled achievement over rivals like Arsenal and Real Madrid. This historic feat cements Chelsea’s legacy as a European powerhouse, setting a benchmark for others to aspire to in the ever-competitive world of football.
