Award winners

On 12 July 1988, at the beginning of the 1988–89 European competitions seeding held in Geneva, then UEFA president Jacques Georges presented the prize to then Juventus president Giampiero Boniperti.
In July 1992, after winning the European Champions' Cup, then FC Barcelona president Josep Lluís Núñez requested of UEFA a similar recognition, stating that his club had equalled Juventus' record, having won formerly the Cup Winners' Cup and the UEFA Cup. European football's governing body rejected it because the Spanish club had never won the UEFA Cup proper, and UEFA does not recognize the Fairs Cup as its official predecessor.
Since UEFA awarded Juventus with the UEFA Plaque, four other clubs have won the three main European competitions: Ajax, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, and Manchester United.
