CRISTIANO RONALDO has reassured Real Madrid fans he will be fit to play in Saturday’s UEFA Champions League final against Atletico Madrid in Milan after limping out of Tuesday’s training session.

Ronaldo failed to complete training for the third session in a row, leaving the pitch with a thigh problem following a clash with Real goalkeeper Kiko Casilla. “It was a minor scare, a knock, but in a few days’ time I will be well,” the Portuguese forward told reporters.

The 31-year-old missed the first leg of Real’s semifinal against Manchester City with a thigh injury but thinks he is in better physical condition than he was before the final two years today.

“I believe I’m in better shape,” he said. “I’ve had a slight problem but it’s normal as I have been the most used player in the team.

“I think this is the season where I have played the most minutes. Besides the problem of today’s training session, I believe I’m at my best level.”
