How:Ronaldo had only been on the field for three minutes as a substitute at the San Siro when he fell awkwardly.
It is another injury blow for the former World Cup hero who has barely played all season for the Italian giants and spent the winter break on rehabilitation in Brazil.
"We are all very upset and worried about what happened to Ronaldo. For our part we can only be there for him and stay calm," coach Carlo Ancelotti told the club's Web site.
"I don't think I can say that his career is over because only time can tell when his career will end."
Ronaldo traveled to Paris on Thursday to see Gerard Sailant, the same surgeon who treated him for a similar incident to his right knee in 2000.
Ronaldo is set to undergo surgery at the Pitie-Salpetriere Hospital
