Every Current Premier League Manager Ranked by Major Trophies Won
Behind every successful Premier League club is a manager. It’s obvious, right? But without a man in the dugout to inspire wins, lead training sessions and shout instructions from the side, it’s all futile – and that is highlighted by their bloated trophy cabinets.
The crème de la crème manage to carve a habit of winning silverware, while there are plenty who often struggle to do so. It’s all about creating legacies, and there are managers in the English top flight who stand taller above the rest.
10 Managers With the Most Trophies in Football History (Ranked)
Some managers could not stop winning trophies in their career from Sir Alex Ferguson to Luiz Felipe Scolari to Valeriy Lobanovskyi.
From Liverpool’s Arne Slot to Oliver Glasner of Crystal Palace, we take a look at how many major trophies all 20 managers in the Premier League have won. Below is a list of what silverware is considered to be a ‘major trophy’.
All European trophies (Champions League, Europa League, Europa Conference League), top flight titles across all countries and each nation’s first-choice cup competition are considered to be a major trophy (England’s League Cup wins are also counted).
20. Liam Rosenior – 0
Having been appointed as Enzo Maresca’s successor at Chelsea’s helm at the turn of the year, the powers that be at Stamford Bridge would have hoped for more of the same from Liam Rosenior in terms of winning silverware. The club had lifted the Europa Conference League and Club World Cup last term, a testament to the Italian’s knack for instant success. So far, however, the inexperience of the former Strasbourg head coach is beginning to show, and already there is a sense that time is running out.
Patience in west London, after four matches without a win, is thin to say the least. While the Blues have a recent history of appointing managers capable of delivering immediate success, the hiring of Rosenior is increasingly looking like the rushed decision from Todd Boehly’s hierarchy that it seemed at the time.
19. Andoni Iraola – 0
Bournemouth have a gem in Andoni Iraola, highlighted by the fact that he’s being mooted as Pep Guardiola’s inevitable replacement at Manchester City. Things haven’t always gone swimmingly for the Spaniard on the south coast – and that extends to the entirety of his career in the dugout. As things stand, he’s lifted zero major trophies. Watch this space!
18. Michael Carrick – 0
It feels unfair to even list Michael Carrick, given that he is yet to have a chance of managing a team capable of winning a major honour. Sandwiched between two stints as the temporary saving grace of Manchester United, he was the top dog at Middlesbrough in the Championship.
He has the Red Devils back inside the top three of the Premier League at the time of writing, and it remains to be seen whether his glowing audition earns him a contract in the summer. For now, however, his managerial career is too young to have won a major trophy.
Ranking Every Premier League Manager by How Likely They Are to Be Sacked
The 20 managers at every Premier League club by how likely they are to be sacked next.
17. Scott Parker – 0
With a managerial circuit that features Fulham, Bournemouth, Club Brugge, and Burnley, Scott Parker has also not had a decent enough opportunity to win anything of note in his post-playing career. Currently calling the shots at Turf Moor, where the Clarets look all but consigned to relegation, the 45-year-old is yet to prove he’s worth bigger clubs sniffing around his appointment.
16. Fabian Hurzeler – 0
Fabian Hurzeler, aged 31 at the time, became the youngest permanent manager in Premier League history when he joined Brighton & Hove Albion from St. Pauli. Albeit inexperienced, he made a name for himself in Germany and his stint in England, but despite winning the 2.Bundesliga, a major trophy still evades him.
15. Rob Edwards – 0
Well-to-do manager Rob Edwards is the kind of personable tactician that neutrals would love to see with silverware in his hands. But after stints at Forest Green Rovers, Watford, Luton Town, Middlesbrough, and now bottom-placed Wolves, his chances are rather limited. The fact he’s only 43 means he has lots of years ahead of him to change that.
14. Daniel Farke – 0
Daniel Farke continues to struggle to prove he is consistent enough to be a Premier League manager, and that alone prevents him from landing roles where major honours are on offer. That same tendency to blow hot and cold also makes cup competitions particularly difficult to navigate. He is yet to win a notable trophy, but having Leeds United above the dotted line after winning the Championship last term should not be frowned upon.
13. Keith Andrews – 0
Believe it or not, but before helping Brentford to mount a genuine push for European qualification in the wake of Thomas Frank’s departure last summer, Keith Andrews was nothing more than a set-piece coach. He’s now forging a promising career in the dugout, and it seems like his name might be around for quite some time.
12. Regis Le Bris – 0
From the outside looking in, it looks like Regis Le Bris spent far too long managing Lorient B before taking the leap and taking up a senior role elsewhere. He has Sunderland firing on all cylinders this season, and you have to think the 50-year-old would have won something by now had he realised his own potential of taking clubs with a limited budget and taking them to the higher reaches of their country’s football pyramid.
11. Igor Tudor – 1
Igor Tudor wasn’t always the kind of manager struggling teams would look towards for a hero. Indeed, in the 2012/13 campaign, he led Hajduk Split to a Croatian Cup – a major honour that would then evade them for nearly another decade before winning it back to back in 2022 and 2023.
Now overseeing a Tottenham side that couldn’t buy a win, the ex-Udinese head coach shows no enthusiasm of bailing them out of danger, and his current woes could stop him from getting the chance to win anothe rmajor honour again as things stand.
10. Nuno Espirito Santo – 1
Nuno Espirito Santo’s spell in charge of Nottingham Forest had been the stuff of dreams at the City Ground, but after a disagreement or two with Evangelos Marinakis, he was unable to emulate the success he endured in Saudi Arabia with Al-Ittihad, before being sacked earlier this season.
The veteran became a Saudi Pro League champion in 2022/23, which is the only trophy of his career, and he now has the uphill battle of helping West Ham survive relegation.
9. David Moyes – 1
Tumultuous is, perhaps, the word to describe David Moyes’ career. Chosen as the man to continue Sir Alex Ferguson’s legacy at Old Trafford, it didn’t work out, and he’s since managed at West Ham and Everton. That said, it was at the former where he lifted Europa Conference League gold – a memory that will never die for the east Londoners. During his second-coming on Merseyside, he is greeted by a new stadium and new owners, too, so we will have to wait and see what that means for the Toffees’ fortunes.
8. Mikel Arteta – 1
Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta, who is one of Pep Guardiola’s many disciples, inherited a squad knitted together by the legendary Arsene Wenger – and within months, he won the oldest competition in football history: the FA Cup. Since then, the north Londoners have failed to win anything.
They’ve somewhat become England’s nearlymen in their pursuit of extra silverware, and, at one point, it felt like time (and patience) is starting to run out for the Spaniard after finishing second in the Premier League for a third successive season – missing out on glory to newly-appointed Liverpool boss Arne Slot, who proved success can be instant last term. After a League Cup final loss to Man City this term, all eyes are now on whether he can deliver the much more important Premier League.
Every Current 2024/25 Premier League Manager [Ranked]
From Pep Guardiola to David Moyes, all current Premier League managers have been ranked from best to worst.
7. Eddie Howe – 1
Eddie Howe’s stint in charge of Bournemouth was nothing short of magical – from League Two to the Premier League. His reputation in the English game was boosted tenfold, so much so that Newcastle United secured his services – and he has since ended the club’s decades-long trophy drought by winning the 2024/25 League Cup against Liverpool.
6. Marco Silva – 2
There’s a reason why Marco Silva is such a sought-after presence in the managerial sphere: his Fulham side are always a tough opponent and that’s attributed to the Portuguese’s brilliance. He’s yet to taste success in the English capital, but the 48-year-old has experienced it elsewhere – a Portuguese Cup with Sporting GP and Greece’s top flight with Olympiacos.
5. Oliver Glasner – 2
There are not many Europa League winners on this list – but Oliver Glasner, 50, is among them. In 2021/22, while in the Eintracht Frankfurt dugout, the Austrian reigned supreme in Europe’s second-tier competition.
He will have the opportunity to add a second win in that competition next season after he guided Crystal Palace to FA Cup glory in just his second season in SE25. The Austrian told Pep Guardiola he had to change his system or else he would punish him, and it all turned out to come to fruition in beautiful fashion when the Eagles won their first major honour with a 1-0 victory over Manchester City under the arches of Wembley Stadium.
4. Arne Slot – 3
Taking his tally to three recently, Arne Slot adopted Jurgen Klopp’s star-studded team in the summer of 2024 and won the Premier League at the first time of asking. With his former employers, Feyenoord, he won the Eredivisie and the Dutch Cup in back-to-back campaigns. As long as he remains at the Anfield helm, his collection is poised to grow exponentially, though his position is now under threat after a sub-par title defence.
3. Vitor Pereira – 5
Before arriving on English shores as the new face in charge of Wolves and now Nottingham Forest, Vitor Pereira had a knack for adding trophies to his CV – especially during his 93-outing stint with FC Porto. In Portugal, he won two league titles. Elsewhere, he’s enjoyed success in the form of silverware at Olympiacos and Shanghai SIPG.
2. Unai Emery – 9
If you take his Arsenal stint at face value, it would be assumed that Unai Emery tends to struggle when getting the best out of some of the greatest stars in Europe. As one of the longest-serving managers in the Premier League, the 53-year-old has endured success since stepping into the world of management – at Paris Saint-Germain and Sevilla. Most notably, he holds the record for the most Europa League wins in the competition’s history, having won it four times.
Complete List of All 20 Premier League Manager’s Wages
Premier League head coaches are some of the most highly paid in Europe, with Pep Guardiola, Mikel Arteta and Arne Slot all being paid handsomely.
1. Pep Guardiola – 34
No gold medal for guessing who was going to top the list: Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola is a serial winner. Pre-England, the Catalonia-born tactician was a trophy-winning force with Bayern Munich and Barcelona. At the time of writing, Guardiola has 34 major trophies – including a trio of Champions Leagues – in his repertoire. Including non-major trophies like the Supercopa de Espana, UEFA Super Cup and Community Shield, he has 40 trophies in total, the second-most in football history.

This Sunday’s UFC Freedom 250 at the White House is set to be the most controversial in company history.
Not only has the landmark show, timed to celebrate President Donald Trump’s 80th birthday, been threatened with a lawsuit, but there is also the possibility that adverse weather could affect the card.
The seven-fight event will take place on the South Lawn of the Washington DC property, with the UFC Octagon completely open to the elements.
The UFC White House Fight Card Explored
UFC Freedom 250 is the promotion’s most stacked show of the year to date. In the evening’s main event, Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje will meet for the undisputed UFC Lightweight Championship.
There’s even more gold on the line in the co-main event as Alex Pereira takes on Ciryl Gane for the interim UFC Heavyweight Championship. Elsewhere on the card, much-loved UFC veterans Sean O’Malley, Derrick Lewis and Michael Chandler will also be in action.
Earlier this week, it was reported that the show could be called off, with an initial weather forecast projecting a 39% chance of thunderstorms in Washington on the day of the show. That forecast, though, has since improved.
Dana White’s Plan to Deal With Bad Weather at UFC Freedom 250
UFC CEO Dana White had previously gone on record to state that the only thing that would stop the historic show would be lightning. However, the veteran matchmaker has now revealed that he even has a plan for that eventuality.
During an appearance on Adin Ross’ live stream, Dana dismissed any suggestion that the fights would be cancelled.
He insisted:
“We’re fighting [through bad weather]. If it f****** snows, we’re fighting. We’re fighting. Nothing will stop this show going that night. It could be f****** rain, lightning.”
Going back on his prior comments, White revealed that, in the event of lightning, the promotion would simply temporarily suspend the show until any storm had passed.
“Lightning is the only thing. We’d have to wait it out. We’d have to wait the lightning out and then do the fight. Listen, this is why I don’t like doing things outside. Obviously, rain would suck. Heavy winds will suck.”
During a podcast appearance for MainEvent, the UFC’s Head of Production, Craig Borsari, confirmed the existence of the contingency plans mentioned by Dana.
Both men insist that rain in itself won’t cause the card to be interrupted.
“I would say, light to maybe moderate rain, we will try to continue to move forward and conclude the event,” stated Borsari.
However, in the event of anything more extreme, the production guru admitted:
“Anything beyond that, whether it’s, like I said, increased winds, high winds, lightning, we clearly need to shut down. If lightning is within eight miles of the Octagon. So, those plans are a different set of contingency planning than light to moderate rain.”
The UFC’s controversial event at the White House is nearly upon us. Despite a number of potential hurdles, the controversial show looks set to become a reality on Sunday night.
In their final friendly before the 2026 World Cup begins, England took on Costa Rica. Although the game was delayed by 30 minutes due to bad weather in Orlando, the Three Lions made a strong start and dominated throughout to win the game 3-0.
This was the last chance for Thomas Tuchel to get a look at his players before the tournament begins, with games against Croatia, Ghana and Panama to come in Group L. Having beaten New Zealand 1-0, which was an uninspired last outing, supporters would have been hoping to get a little more excitement in this match, and things certainly started brighter here.
It took just 10 minutes for England to get the breakthrough. Anthony Gordon powered past his man to reach the byline before cutting a pass back to Declan Rice, who swept the ball into the bottom corner with his weaker foot.
The other notable incident of the first half was when Noni Maduke ran through on goal, rounded the goalkeeper, but somehow then managed to hit the post. Gordon also won a soft penalty, which was correctly overturned thanks to the intervention of VAR.
The second half saw a whole host of changes made, with substitute Eberechi Eze’s shot leading to a handball and a penalty, which was converted by Gordon. Ollie Watkins then added a third with a poacher’s finish with only minutes to play.
England Ace Struggles vs Costa Rica
With Bukayo Saka not fully fit, it remains unclear if the Arsenal star will start against Croatia in England’s opener. Tuchel explained in the week: “Bukayo is just not there yet. Some things are missing… consecutive trainings. They took very good care of him [at Arsenal] and were very aware of it and we will do a little bit the same. He is at the moment not able to do every training session through the week and then play. He is still going to be managed.”
As such, Madueke was given the nod against Costa Rica. Although the 24-year-old worked hard and looked lively at times, his lack of quality when the big moments came his way was evident. At half-time, ITV pundits Roy Keane and Ian Wright both agreed Madueke needed to do more with his end product.
The most eye-catching moment came when he was put through on goal by Jude Bellingham. He took a fine touch to go around the goalkeeper but then missed the open goal, hitting the post. Wright claimed the winger should have used his right foot, while Keane simply insisted it didn’t matter which foot, he should have still scored.
Madueke was then replaced by Saka in the 63rd minute.
England Fans Not Satisfied With Madueke Ahead of World Cup
With Madueke looking like he could start ahead of Saka, should his Arsenal teammate not be deemed fit enough for that World Cup tie on 17 June, England fans have expressed their concerns. Indeed, many were unimpressed by the player vs Costa Rica, insisting he should not be given a place in Tuchel’s first starting XI of the tournament.
One fan said: [This first half has proved two things, England have no chance at winning the World Cup & Madueke + Bellingham should not start a single game.’
Another asked: ‘Madueke. How can he possibly start for England?’ While a third said:
‘Madueke is simply not good enough to play for England.’
A fourth wrote: ‘If England need to win this World Cup, Madueke shouldn’t start any of their games.’

The Fifa president had had his say on the controversy…
Reacting directly to the miss, another remarked: ‘That was woeful from Madueke.’ One more added:
‘Madueke that is absolutely shocking. Get yourself on a plane home immediately.’
Others summed up the mood, noting: ‘Madueke is shocking. Absolutely shocking’. And finally: ‘Nah Madueke cannot start for England, how on earth has he missed that?’
Tottenham Hotspur are set to make an ambitious move to sign James Trafford in a potential big-money double deal, according to TEAMtalk.
Tottenham chiefs know that big changes need to be made this summer if they are to bring the club back up the Premier League table next season.
The first stage of that process was to appoint Roberto De Zerbi on a long-term contract, and now they need to provide the Italian with a squad capable of finishing higher up the league in England’s top tier.
Yves Bissouma was confirmed as leaving the club on Wednesday following the expiry of his contract, but Ben Davies has signed a new deal to remain at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
They have also completed two incoming agreements in Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi on free transfers, with the former already officially announced by the club.
More new additions are set to follow though, with the club also in talks over a deal to sign Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton and Hove Albion.
The Dutchman would be the second centre-back signing should a deal be agreed with the Seagulls, with the player already deciding he only wants to sign for Spurs, suggesting a big exit could be coming in that position.
Tottenham Primed to Make James Trafford Move
As well as Van Hecke, Tottenham are also in talks over a deal to bring Manchester City attacker Savinho to north London.
Spurs attempted to sign the Brazilian winger this time last year, although they were unable to get a transfer over the line.
Tottenham chiefs are hoping for better luck this time around, and the £60m-rated 22-year-old could end up being part of a double transfer agreement if the north Londoners have their way.
According to TEAMtalk, Spurs are primed to make a move for City goalkeeper James Trafford, as their busy summer of recruitment continues.
The report says that the club see the ‘world-class’ stopper as a reliable, long-term option for the goalkeeper position, despite a tough season for the England international at the Etihad due to limited minutes.
Should Vicario leave Tottenham, then De Zerbi has identified £40m-rated Trafford as an ideal fit for his possession-based style of football.

Tottenham Face James Trafford Transfer Competition
Tottenham might not have it all their own way in any bid to land Trafford though, who is attracting interest from a number of Premier League clubs having found himself being the number two option at City behind Gianluigi Donnarumma this term.
The 23-year-old is emerging as a strong candidate to replace Emiliano Martinez at Aston Villa, with the Argentina international currently being linked with a move to Juventus.
Newcastle United also have a long-term interest in the England international, having tried to sign him before his move to the Etihad.
The report suggests that Trafford would be keen on a switch to St James’ Park even without European football next season, if he was guaranteed more first-team minutes.
Leeds United are also keen on the former Burnley man as they look to secure a new number one before the 2026-27 campaign gets underway.
