The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) has unveiled the updated list of players with the most hat-tricks in UEFA Champions League history.

This announcement comes after Galatasaray striker, Victor Osimhen, scored a stunning hat-trick in his side’s 3-0 victory over Ajax on Wednesday night.

According to UEFA, a total of 114 players have now recorded at least one Champions League hat-trick, with Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah becoming the 100th player to do so during Matchday 4 of the 2022/23 season.

Osimhen became the latest player to join the elite list on Matchday 4 of the 2025/26 campaign, further solidifying his status among Europe’s top forwards.

Below is the list of players with the most hat-tricks in Champions League history:

8 – Lionel Messi (Barcelona) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid 7, Juventus 1)

6 – Robert Lewandowski (Borussia Dortmund 1, Bayern Munich 4, Barcelona 1)

4 – Karim Benzema (Real Madrid) and Kylian Mbappé (Paris Saint-Germain 2, Real Madrid 2)

3 – Filippo Inzaghi (Juventus 2, AC Milan 1), Mario Gomez (Bayern Munich), Luiz Adriano (Shakhtar Donetsk), and Neymar (Barcelona 1, Paris Saint-Germain 2)

Osimhen’s addition to the list marks a historic moment for African football, as he becomes one of the few Nigerian players to achieve the feat in the modern Champions League era.

"This represents a significant development in our ongoing coverage of current events."
