Real Madrid the sixth most successful club in world football

Real Madrid have endured incredible success since their formation in 1902 but they are still a long way away from becoming the world's most successful club.

That honour goes to Egyptian side, Al Ahly.

The club have won an incredible 121 trophies, including 42 Egyptian Premier League titles.

Nacional are in hot pursuit, with Rangers just pipping fierce rivals Celtic to third.

Give Celtic's dominance in Scottish football in recent years, though, it seems only a matter of time until they eclipse Rangers' total.

Elsehwere, Liverpool and Man United are now locked on 66 trophies.

The Red Devils have not won a trophy since 2017 but can go above the Merseyside club should they win the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle at the end of February.
