The finalist Inter is also on the list of clubs with a treble. The Nerazzurri, who were on the verge of winning their fourth Champions League in 2023, achieved the treble in the 2009/10 season, a milestone achieved by José Mourinho. This is what the list of clubs that have won the treble looks like:

  • 1966/67 – Celtic de Glasgow

  • 2012/13 – Bayern Munich
  • 2014/15 – Barcelona
