Nathan Patterson left the Hampden Park pitch on a stretcher earlier tonight in Scotland's Nations League clash against Ukraine in what could be a major blow for Everton.
The defender was named in Steve Clarke's starting line-up for the clash at Hampden Park, with a place at the top of their group and a chance at a Euro 2024 play-off on the line over the next week. Scotland will play Ukraine twice, as well as the Republic of Ireland.
Patterson started brightly for the home side, making his typically energetic runs into the final third while containing Shakhtar Donetsk star Mykhaylo Mudryk, but failed to make it to the half-hour mark before being forced off through injury. He was replaced by Brentford's Aaron Hickey, and was eventually taken down the sideline on a stretcher.
