Courtois confirms full fitness for Arsenal clash

Thibaut Courtois, Real Madrid's goalkeeper, has confirmed he is 'fully fit' to play in the Champions League quarter-final against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium after missing the last three matches due to a minor hamstring issue. He has returned to training and feels ready to help his team bounce back from a recent defeat to Valencia. Courtois emphasized the importance of being cautious with injuries, stating that his absence was precautionary to avoid further complications. His return is viewed as a significant boost for Real Madrid, who are defending Champions League holders. Courtois also acknowledged Arsenal's strengths, particularly in set-pieces, which they have worked on defending against. Despite his confidence, he noted that the decision to start would ultimately be up to the coach, Carlo Ancelotti.
