World Cup 2010, a fully promising sports event of the world, will be held in Cape Town, South Africa in the next 3 months. Of course, this event will witness the participation of national football teams all over the world and famous football players; however, there are names that are likely to be absent in South Africa. The factors may come from injury or retirement from the national team. Let's have a look at the football stars that possibly miss the World Cup 2010 event:
Ronaldinho is considered to be the most promising players in South Africa. His brilliant dribbling and assist is still awaited. The World Cup will have a great loss if Dunga, the couch, does not call him to national team although he achieved success in the World Cup 2006.
Alessandro Nesta is one of the best defenders who Italy has ever had. Unfortunately, Nesta retired so early from national team after winning the World Cup in 2006, and the AC Milan defender determined to leave the national team due to the long heavy injury. Although Lippi tried to convince him of taking part in the national team, Nesta still refuse to come back which will be a heavy loss of Italy.
In fact, Ronaldo has never received a call coach as the Brazil team competes in the Confederations Cup, and his successive absences are making his chance of participating in World Cup 2010 less likely.
Juan Roman Riquelme (Argentina)
The quarrel between Riquelme and the coach Diego Maradona makes Riquelme not have chance to join the national team in the World Cup 2010.

Clarence Seedorf (Netherlands)
Seedorf won the Champions League three times in three different clubs. However, he never successfully led the Netherlands to reach the final. This AC Milan midfielder was no longer called by the national team since May 2008, so there is no hope for Seedorf to appear at the World Cup 2010.
