Real Madrid star Ronaldo: I'll make Champions League final

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has declared himself fit for the Champions League final on Saturday.

Ronaldo had been carrying a knee strain for the past month.

"I'll be there on Saturday. I've started getting back into the swing of things. Today I'm not quite at 100% but I will be for the final. This is really important, we work all year to play in finals and win them. We are elite players, we play every week and it is normal that your body cannot take it from time to time.

"It is bad luck that these problems have emerged at the end of the season. Nobody wants to miss a final that we have been looking forward to for years. I want to help Real Madrid win the Cup. I'm confident that I'll be 100% for the final."
