Ronaldo's injury-stricken start to the season continues apace following the news that he will be unable to face Urawa Red Diamonds in the semi-final, nor Boca Juniors or Etoile du Sahel in the final, should Milan qualify.
AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani explained coach Carlo Ancelotti's decision to leave the troubled Brazilian out of his squad.
"Ronaldo feels that he won’t be ready for Sunday['s match with Urawa]," he began.
"I met with him and Ancelotti in his room, and together we came to the decision together that he won’t be on the list of players we can use in the Club World Cup.
"Giuseppe Favalli will take his place and Ronnie will be amongst those who cannot be brought on as replacements."
As such, Ronaldo, who managed seven Serie A goals in 14 appearances last season, will watch from the stands as the Milanese take on Urawa on Thursday morning.
Ronaldo's injury comeback was originally slated for the beginning of the current competitive season, but it's been repeatedly delayed due to fitnss concerns.
Should the Brazilian international recover by the New Year, he may find slotting into the team more difficult thanks to the arrival and eligibility of his young countryman, Pato.
