Ajax Football Club
With four European Cups, an UEFA Cup, an European Cup Winners Cup, three European Supercups, and two Intercontinental Cup to their name, few clubs can boast a trophy cabinet as richly filled as that of Ajax Amsterdam. And that wasn't even counting the 29 Dutch league titles and 17 Dutch cup victories the club have amassed over the years. Ajax are one of only four clubs to have won all three major European trophies, the others being Juventus, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich. As if the abundance of silverware wasn't enough, Ajax have produced some of the most prodigiously talented players in the history of the game, like Johan Cruyff, Marco van Basten, and Dennis Bergkamp.
