Juventus won a seventh straight Serie A title in 2017/18 – thus clinching a fourth consecutive domestic double – but this still wasn't enough to put them on the all-time European leaderboard for successive league championships.
Top spot in this category belongs to two clubs who lifted 14 straight titles: Latvian side Skonto and Lincoln of Gibraltar, a team that missed out on outright leadership when pipped by rivals Europa on the last day of season 2016/17.
Lincoln's disappointment also left them one title short of what is considered the world record, held by Tafea of Vanuatu in Oceania, whose 15 consecutive championships ran from 1994 to 2008/09.
Belarusian club BATE Borisov now have their sights on that tally after sealing their 13th straight Belarusian crown in 2018, the longest current streak in European football. Meanwhile, Vaduz's 46th Liechtensteiner Cup win in May extended their world-record haul of domestic cups.
