The all-time Premier League winners list

What is the all-time Premier League winners list? Read here to find out who every Premier League winner has been, and which teams have won the most titles.

Dating back to 1992/93, the Premier League winners list spans several generations of English football. Multiple teams have had spells as the Premier League betting favourites, but there is still some debate over the best Premier League team ever. However, one thing there can be no subjectivity about is the Premier League winners by year.

Premier League winners by year

Who has won the Premier League?

Manchester United: 13 Titles

Manchester United won 13 of the first 21 Premier League titles, with the Red Devils not finishing outside the top two until 2001/02. They completed a pair of three-peats – the first falling either side of the turn of the century and the second coming in the second half of the noughties. 

Alex Ferguson added a 13th league title in his final Premier League season. It was also perhaps the most remarkable, with United overachieving given the quality and age profile of their squad. Since Ferguson’s retirement, they have had just two top-two finishes.

Manchester City: 8 Titles

Manchester City are the only team to win four Premier League titles in a row. The first two came under the management of Roberto Mancini and Manuel Pellegrini, respectively, before the unparalleled era of dominance with Pep Guardiola at the helm.

City hold an array of records, including the most points in a season, the most goals, the biggest margin of victory, and the most consecutive wins to end a season. Despite being a club that spent some of the Premier League era outside the top flight, they’re comfortably the second-most successful club since 1992.

Chelsea: 5 Titles

Roman Abramovich’s money and Jose Mourinho’s mastery led Chelsea to back-to-back titles in 2005 and 2006. The first of the two set both the single-season points record at the time and the lowest number of goals conceded in a Premier League season.

Carlo Ancelotti’s Blues played a more entertaining brand of football when they won the double in 2010, before Mourinho and Antonio Conte added the club’s fourth and fifth titles in 2015 and 2017, respectively.

Arsenal: 3 Titles

All three of Arsenal’s Premier League titles were won in a seven-year period under Arsene Wenger. A double in 1997/98 prevented United winning three in a row and the 2003/04 season is the only invincible top flight campaign in English football history.

Wenger was integral in the professionalisation of English football. He improved player fitness standards and embraced sports science in a way few, if any, clubs were doing. Along with that, his love for possession-based play brought something close to a tactical revolution and changed how football was played in England.

Liverpool: 2 Titles

After agonising near-misses in 2013 and 2019, Liverpool finally got their hands on a Premier League title in 2020. Jurgen Klopp had already brought a Champions League to Anfield, but ending a 30-year drought ensured that Klopp would be remembered as fondly as Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, and Kenny Dalglish. 

After failing to topple City in the following four seasons, Klopp departed and was replaced by Arne Slot, who won the league in the 2024/25 season – his first at the club. 

Blackburn Rovers: 1 Title

Blackburn booked their spot on the list of all Premier League winners in only the third season after the rebrand. Bankrolled by Jack Walker, Blackburn finished runners-up in 1993/94 and went one better in 1994/95 with Kenny Dalglish winning Manager of the Year and Alan Shearer being named Player of the Year.

Chris Sutton, Graeme LeSaux, Tim Sherwood, Colin Hendry, and Tim Flowers joined Shearer in the Team of the Year. The Lancashire club haven’t finished higher than sixth since winning the title and haven’t played in the Premier League since 2012.

Leicester City: 1 Title

Leicester winning the Premier League in 2015/16 is one of the biggest surprises in the history of sport, not just football. Claudio Ranieri was appointed as manager in the summer of 2015 after the Foxes just about avoided the drop in 2014/15. 

With Wes Morgan and Robert Huth in central defence, Leicester were physical out of possession and had quality and speed to do damage when they got the ball. Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy provided the attacking threat, with N’Golo Kante and Danny Drinkwater running the show in central midfield. 

The greatest Premier League title races 

There have been some great Premier League title races over the years. Sergio Agüero’s last-gasp goal in 2011/12 is the most memorable conclusion to a Premier League season, with Manchester City winning their first-ever Premier League title on goal difference, leaving Manchester United stunned.

In 2021/22, City held a one-point lead over Liverpool going into the final day. City fell 2-0 down to Aston Villa by the 70th minute and it looked as though the title could be heading Liverpool’s way. Needing to match or better the Reds’ result to earn another spot on the list of Premier League winners, City scored three goals in a six-minute period to win the second of four consecutive titles. 

Having been 5000/1 outsiders after narrowly avoiding relegation in the previous campaign, Leicester City pulled off one of the most remarkable league wins in memory in 2015/16. The Foxes won a number of crucial matches over the final few weeks of the season, but the title was confirmed when a moment of magic from Eden Hazard ensured Tottenham drew the ‘Battle of the Bridge’. 

The 2009/10 race didn’t see any massive points tallies, but it was very close. Chelsea had a one-point lead over Manchester United going into the final day of the season and defeated Wigan 8-0 to be crowned champions. The Blues played scintillating football under Carlo Ancelotti, averaging 2.71 goals per game.

Who has won the Premier League by the greatest margin of victory?

Manchester City hold the record for the largest margin of victory. In 2017/18, City finished the campaign 19 points ahead of Manchester United.

This was the third time Manchester City appeared on the Premier League history winners list. They cruised to the title, wrapping it up with five matches to spare. Numerous records fell along the way, including the most points (100), most wins (32), most away wins (16), most goals (106), most consecutive league wins (18), and the highest goal difference (+79).
