UEFA Centurions: Every European Player with 100+ Caps

Reaching 100 international caps is one of the clearest marks of a long and successful career, and European footballers have reached it more often than players from any other confederation. Since Billy Wright of England became the first man to win 100 caps in 1959, the club has grown to include World Cup winners, record goalscorers and long-serving captains from Europe’s smaller nations. This page lists every European centurion recognised by FIFA, and sits alongside our coverage of the UEFA European Championship.

The list counts only full international matches recognised by FIFA. Some players who passed 100 appearances in other records, including matches at the Olympic Games or games FIFA does not class as full internationals, fall below the threshold here and are not included.

Which European Nations Produce the Most Centurions?

Europe’s centurions do not all come from the biggest footballing nations. Smaller countries such as Estonia, Latvia, Malta, Andorra and Liechtenstein are well represented, because a settled core of players can stay in the side for well over a decade and play every qualifying campaign. The larger nations tend to produce centurions through long tournament runs, with World Cup, European Championship and Nations League matches adding up quickly for regular starters.

The modern international calendar has also made 100 caps easier to reach than in Wright’s era. The arrival of the Nations League, expanded qualifying groups and larger tournaments means today’s regulars play more competitive matches each year, which is why so many current players appear in the table above. Follow the latest round of fixtures in the UEFA Nations League 2026/27.
