Winning the European treble is winning the UEFA Champions League, the domestic championship and the league cup. That is the desire of all the best European clubs every season.
Manchester United, Barcelona, ??Bayern Munich and Inter Milan are the only clubs in Europe's top five leagues to have ever won the treble. Manchester United won the treble in the 1998/99 season. In this season, the Red Devils have won the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League and FA Cup.
Barcelona and Bayern Munich each won the treble twice. Bayern Munich won the UEFA Champions League, Bundesliga and DFB Pokal in the 2012/2013 and 2019/2020 seasons.
Barcelona won the treble in the 2008/2009 and 2014/2015 seasons. During this season, they won the UEFA Champions League, La Liga and Copa Del Rey.
Inter Milan won the treble in the 2009/2010 season. During this time, they won the UEFA Champions League, Serie A and Copa Italia titles.
Manchester City looks set to win the treble in the 2022/2023 season. The Citizens won their second trophy of the season, beating Manchester United 2-1 in the FA Cup final. If they win against Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League final on June 10, 2023, they will complete the treble.

Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager
Manchester United remain closely linked with Kim Min-Jae, who looks set to leave Napoli for a move to Old Trafford.
The South Korean star received a yellow card in the final game against Bologna and will not be participating in the final game of the season against Sampdoria.
According to La Gazzetta Dello Sport (newsletter provided below), the 26-year-old midfielder will definitely wave to the fans after the game and it will be 'goodbye'
The famous Italian media confirmed that Man Utd will pay the clause allowing Min-Jae to join them in the first two weeks of next month.
As for the fee, it is reported that Man Utd are close to agreeing a deal worth at least £43m (€50m) to sign the former Fenerbahce defender.
The Red Devils couldn't stop Manchester City from winning the FA Cup yesterday but they defended well against the Sky Blues. Two goals from outside the box wrecked United's fine defence, and Ten Hag eventually ended his first season at Old Trafford with just the Carabao Cup.
Varane and Martinez have been Man Utd's top choice of centre-back pairing under the Dutchman and in the Argentine's absence, Lindelof has shown quality.
MU kept the Swedish star but had to sell Harry Maguire, who had no future and only sat on the warm bench this season.
Kim Min-Jae has been Italy's best defender this season and if the Korean is to be signed, he must start for Man Utd.
