Grant Hanley will miss the bulk of Scotland’s Euro 2024 qualification campaign after rupturing an Achilles tendon.
The Norwich centre-half started in the heart of Scotland’s defence in the opening two qualifying wins over Cyprus and Spain.
But he has been consigned to a lengthy lay-off after suffering an injury against former club Blackburn on Good Friday.
Hanley will face a battle to get back for the remainder of the group games, which culminate with matches against Georgia and Norway in mid-November.
“Grant has ruptured his Achilles tendon and is having an operation this week. He will be out for months,” Norwich manager David Wagner said.
