Ronaldo will miss the Jan. 3 game at Bilbao in the last 16 of the Cup and a friendly against Atletico Madrid on Friday.

Real were already

without striker and captain Raul who suffered a serious knee injury in November.

They have slipped to fifth in the Primera Liga, 11 points behind league leaders and arch-rivals Barcelona.

English defender Jonathan Woodgate, who suffered a hamstring injury in November, returned to full training on Thursday.
