We take a look at all the winners of the Copa del Rey throughout the years.

From 1903, the Royal Spanish Football Federation has hosted the Copa del Rey, an annual knockout football tournament in Spain. Teams from LaLiga and Segunda División as well as certain qualifiers from lesser divisions are eligible to compete.

A total of 121 single-match finals have been started playing since the inaugural final between Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid (the 1904 final was not allowed to hold, but in 1910 and 1913 two simultaneous tournaments and finals were played because of disputes between the FEF and the UCEF, both of which were regarded as official).

36 various teams have participated in the final as of 2023, and 15 of them teams have won the competition at least once. The team that wins completed a domestic double by winning LaLiga (which started in 1929) on 18 separate times. Barcelona, who have accomplished this feat twice in 2009 and 2015, is the only side to win LaLiga, the Copa del Rey, and the UEFA Champions League all in the same calendar year. Due to the impact of the Spanish Civil War, the tournament was not staged in 1938.

In addition to Sergio Busquets, Lionel Messi leads with most finals played in a row (10), goals scored (9), goals scored by a player in the highest finals (7), assists (6 in the most finals), participation (10 in the most finals), & man of the match honours (19 in the most finals) (3). With seven victories each, Messi and Busquets share the lead with Barcelona teammates Gerard Piqué and Agustn Ganza of Athletic Bilbao. Between 1942 and 1945, Telmo Zarra scored in every final he appeared in, setting records for both the most goals and assists in a final and successive finals (four, in 1950).
