Top Coaches by Champions in the Big Five Leagues: Ferguson Leads with 13 Titles, Guardiola Follows with 12, Ancelotti Achieves Grand Slam

Who holds the title of football’s top coach? Which manager has secured the highest number of championships in Europe’s Big Five leagues? SCORE90 compiled a ranking of the top five coaches with the most Big Five league titles, where retired Ferguson tops the list with 13, Guardiola follows with 12, and Ancelotti impressively completed the grand slam of Big Five league trophies.

Top 5 Coaches by Big Five League Championships:

• First: Ferguson, 13 titles (all Premier League championships).
• Second: Guardiola, 12 titles (6 Premier League + 3 Bundesliga + 3 La Liga).
• Third: Capello, 7 titles (5 Serie A + 2 La Liga).
• Fourth: Ancelotti, 6 titles (grand slam of the Big Five leagues, including 2 La Liga titles).
• Tied Fourth: Mourinho, 6 titles (3 Premier League + 2 Serie A + 1 La Liga).

After 16 rounds of the Premier League this season, Manchester City trails league leaders Arsenal by 2 points, and Guardiola is aiming for his 13th Big Five league title. Some say Ancelotti is the greatest for winning titles in all five leagues, which is true; however, some fans argue that since Guardiola has only coached top clubs, his number of titles does not elevate his status.

In my opinion, those fans are overcomplicating things. If you had the ability to earn 50,000 per month, would you settle for a 5,000 salary job? Guardiola’s high starting point reflects his capability. His consistent presence at elite clubs in the Big Five leagues demonstrates his strength, and the fact that he has never been dismissed by a club further proves Guardiola’s professional competence.
