Top 10 Managers Who Have Won the Premier League Title

Some top managers have ever lifted the Premier League trophy since it began in 1992. Some did it again and again, while others pulled off a single, unforgettable triumph. 

They came from different countries and used different styles, but each one guided their club to become England’s champion. 

Here are the top 10 managers who have won the Premier League Title.

1. Sir Alex Ferguson (Manchester United)

13 Titles: 1992–93, 1993–94, 1995–96, 1996–97, 1998–99, 1999–2000, 2000–01, 2002–03, 2006–07, 2007–08, 2008–09, 2010–11, 2012–13
Ferguson built a dynasty at Old Trafford, blending shrewd transfers with a golden generation of youth academy graduates. His ability to rebuild winning sides, often in the face of ageing squads, set a new standard.

He combined tactical flexibility with fierce management, ensuring United remained hungry for silverware over two decades.

2. Pep Guardiola (Manchester City)

6 Titles: 2017–18, 2018–19, 2020–21, 2021–22, 2022–23, 2023–24
Guardiola’s City revolution introduced precision passing, overloads on the flanks and a relentless press.

He shattered points records, reaching 100 in 2017–18 and 106 in 2018–19, and built successive teams that could adapt to any opponent. His attention to detail and total control have made City a modern powerhouse.

3. Arsène Wenger (Arsenal)

3 Titles: 1997–98, 2001–02, 2003–04
Wenger transformed English football with new ideas on diet, fitness and tactics. He led the “Invincibles” side of 2003–04 that did not lose a single league match, a feat unmatched since.

Beyond trophies, he modernised how clubs handled travel, training, and youth development, leaving a legacy that was felt far beyond Arsenal.

4. José Mourinho (Chelsea)

3 Titles: 2004–05, 2005–06, 2014–15
Dubbed “The Special One,” Mourinho arrived at Stamford Bridge with a pragmatic, defence‑first style that broke the traditional mould.

His first two titles came back‑to‑back, puncturing the Premier League’s status quo. On his return nearly a decade later, he once again guided Chelsea to the summit with his trademark motivational prowess.

5. Kenny Dalglish (Blackburn Rovers)

1 Title: 1994–95
Dalglish led a surprise triumph that few saw coming. Backed by owner Jack Walker’s investment and bolstered by key signings, he formed a tight‑knit squad that blended grit with experienced talent.

Blackburn’s title win remains one of English football’s greatest underdog stories, and a milestone for smaller clubs.

6. Roberto Mancini (Manchester City)

1 Title: 2011–12
Mancini ended City’s 44‑year wait for a league crown with a goal in stoppage time on the final day, a moment that lives forever in club folklore.

His solid defensive organisation and willingness to back star players like Agüero were crucial in pipping rivals on goal difference. He laid the groundwork for City’s future success.

7. Manuel Pellegrini (Manchester City)

1 Title: 2013–14
Pellegrini’s free‑scoring side mixed flair with consistency, scoring over 100 goals en route to the title. He managed to follow Mancini’s final‑day drama with a commanding points total of his own, showcasing an attacking approach that blended individual moments of genius with reliable day‑to‑day performances.

8. Claudio Ranieri (Leicester City)

1 Title: 2015–16
Ranieri masterminded a 5,000‑1 fairy tale that few believed possible. By forging a close‑knit squad and instilling belief, he steered Leicester, owners of mid‑table expectations, to the peak of English football.

His focus on quick counterattacks and set‑piece efficiency powered one of sport’s greatest surprises.

9. Jürgen Klopp (Liverpool)

1 Title: 2019–20
Klopp’s passion‑driven “gegenpressing” won Liverpool their first league title in 30 years. He built a squad brimming with energy, mixing homegrown stars with astute signings.

Klopp’s emotional leadership and style of play not only brought silverware but also reignited the spirit of Anfield, uniting players and fans alike.

10. Antonio Conte (Chelsea)

1 Title: 2016–17
Conte revived Chelsea with his switch to a 3‑4‑3 formation, delivering a season of 30 wins and a dominant 93 points.

His rigorous training drills and clear tactical blueprint turned a struggling side into champions within months, underlining how a strong game plan and man‑management can transform fortunes overnight.
