This is a list of UEFA Super Cup winning football managers. The UEFA Super Cup is an annual contest played between the previous season's UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup winners.[1] The first final, played over two legs between Dutch team Ajax and Glasgow's Rangers is considered unofficial by UEFA.[2] Rangers were banned from European competition due to the behaviour of their fans but, having won the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup the previous season, contested the title.[3] Ajax lifted the trophy under the guidance of Romanian manager Ştefan Kovács, winning 6–3 over the two legs.

Since the 1998 competition, the final has been a single match, played at a neutral venue, Stade Louis II in Monaco.[4] The first final held in the principality ended in success for Chelsea, led by Italian Gianluca Vialli.

Italian managers have fared most successfully since the inception of the contest, winning nine titles. Five managers have won the title on two occasions, including Arrigo Sacchi and Carlo Ancelotti who have both led A.C. Milan to success twice.

By year

Alex Ferguson won the Super Cup with Aberdeen in 1983 and Manchester United in 1991.
Arrigo Sacchi won back-to-back titles with A.C. Milan in 1989 and 1990.
Louis van Gaal won the trophy with AFC Ajax in 1995 and FC Barcelona in 1997.
Marcello Lippi won the Cup with Juventus F.C. in 1996.
Mircea Lucescu won the Cup with Galatasaray in 2000.
