European association football club records and statistics

This article details men's professional football club records and statistics (individual and collective) in Europe.

The records and stats look across all European clubs competing in the highest divisions and levels of European professional football, allowing for cross-competition comparison. Therefore, the coverage only considers for domestic competitions the top-division of the national league and its cups (national cup, league cup, super cup); for continental competitions, all UEFA club competitions including – although recognized but not organized by UEFA – the Fairs Cup as the predecessor to the UEFA Cup;[1][2] and additionally, on an intercontinental scale, both the FIFA Club World Cup and its defunct predecessor, the Intercontinental Cup, which was endorsed by UEFA (Europe) and CONMEBOL (South America).
