<p>The most prestigious club trophy in women's football will be awarded on Saturday, May 25 at Estadio San Mames in Spain.</p>

<p>Barcelona and Lyon will meet in the UEFA Women's Champions League final for the second time in three seasons. The French giants won 3-1 back in 2022 to deny the Catalans a second straight trophy, although they returned a year later to reclaim the prize, defeating Wolfsburg 3-2 in the Netherlands.</p>

<p>Barca and Lyon have been two of the dominant forces in European women's football over the past 15 years and Saturday's match is expected to be a classic in front of a potentially capacity crowd of just over 53,000 spectators. But which team has the greatest level of success in this tournament's history?</p>

<p>The Sporting News looks at the teams to have won this competition the most, and the players who have celebrated with the trophy more than any others.</p>
