Here is a record of all 20 Premier League clubs’ records in the three major European competitions (Champions League, Europa & Conference).

Chelsea sensationally reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in five out of their six appearances in the competition in the 2000s but didn’t get their hands on the trophy until 2012 when they beat Bayern Munich on penalties.

They won the Europa League the following season and then again in 2019 before claiming their second Champions League in 2021, beating Premier League rivals Manchester City 1-0 courtesy of a Kai Havertz goal.

The Blues completed the European trifecta last season, winning the Conference League final against Real Betis.
