Isn't there a couple of Egyptian players who are gonna be up there. Like fuck we will get their names
Zidane, Beckham, Roberto Carlos and Javier Zanetti.
I cant remember seeing any egypitans in the list.
Marcelo must have 15 by now.
Alvaro Arbeloa could be a sneaker as well.
Zanetti just sneaks in with 15 while the real madrid bunch, didnt really win enough trophies to make the list. Roberto Carlos was there before them all, and he won 11 trophies while in madrid. Beckham won 7 trophies after the year 2000 and 10 before 1999
As the dutch league has been excluded, it means the dutch guys such as van bommel didnt win enough in leagues that count.
With dutch league - 25
Without dutch league -13
Arbeloa only has 11. He never won anything at liverpool.
Couple more Govou-esque outliers:
Gregory Coupet
Juninho (he of the free kicks)
Players left played for barcelona, inter milan, real madrid, chelsea, juventus, bayern munich and others
Cesc Fabregas?
Dejan Stankovic
Drogba
Cambiasso
Karim Benzema must be well past 15 by now, he won stuff at Lyon too.
About 10 left.
Think about the inter and bacelona teams that were dominating during the same period. Some players won trophies before joining, won with inter or barca and then left these clubs and won trophies elsewhere.
Already been said.

I've gone for a few players who won European trophies as quite young players, then still had strong careers afterwards.
I'm good for late 90s/early 00s finals but I haven't got a clue from mid 00s onwards.
