Everton have been dealt a huge setback after full-back Nathan Patterson was stretchered off during Scotland's Nations League match on Sunday night.
The 20-year-old defender has broken into Frank Lampard's starting eleven this year and has been one of the Toffee's most reliable players, playing every minute possible in their opening seven games.
But he could now be set for a lengthy spell on the side-line after Scotland boss Steve Clarke admitted that the injury 'doesn't look too good'.
Scotland cruised to a 3-0 victory over Ukraine in their Nations League Group E fixture thanks to goals from John McGinn and Lyndon Dykes, who scored a brace.
