List of UEFA Super Cup winning managers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The UEFA Super Cup (called European Super Cup prior to 1995) is an annual contest played between the previous season's UEFA Champions League (formerly the European Cup) and UEFA Europa League (formerly UEFA Cup) winners.[1] The first final, played over two legs between Dutch team Ajax and Glasgow's Rangers is considered unofficial by UEFA.[2] Rangers were banned from European competition due to the behaviour of their fans but, having won the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup the previous season, contested the title.[3] Ajax lifted the trophy under the guidance of Romanian manager Ștefan Kovács, winning 6–3 over the two legs.

Carlo Ancelotti has won the trophy a record five times.

From 1973 to 1999, the Super Cup was contested by the winners of the European Cup/Champions League and the holders of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. The latter competition was then abolished and since then, the UEFA Cup have taken part in their place, Galatasaray being the first UEFA Cup winners to do so in 2000. Since the 1998 competition, the final has been a single match, played at a neutral venue (formerly the Stade Louis II in Monaco but now alternating every year).[4] The first final held in the principality ended in success for Chelsea, led by Italian Gianluca Vialli.

Italian managers have fared most successfully since the inception of the contest, winning twelve titles. Carlo Ancelotti (with Milan in 2003 and 2007 and Real Madrid in 2014, 2022 and 2024) has won the trophy on five occasions. Pep Guardiola (with Barcelona in 2009 and 2012, Bayern Munich in 2013 and Manchester City in 2023) is the only manager to have won the trophy with three different clubs.[5]

    Simeone was given a four-match touchline ban in UEFA competitions following the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League semi-final first leg, so assistant manager and compatriot Germán Burgos filled in as manager on the touchline.[69]
