Champions League Appearances

Consider this: since the rebranding of the UEFA Champions League in 1992, Olympiacos have qualified for and appeared in the prestigious European tournament on 17 occasions. Only six football clubs have higher tallies (Real Madrid, Barcelona, and FC Porto with 20; Bayern Munich and Man United with 19; and Arsenal with 18), while AC Milan have also made 17 trips to the UCL.
