Crocked Everton star Nathan Patterson faces six weeks on the sidelines after picking up a knock while on Scotland duty, according to a report.
The Scotland star had to be stretchered off at Hampden on Wednesday night after going down during the victory over Ukraine and was replaced by Aaron Hickey. The 20-year-old withdrew from Steve Clarke’s squad the following day and returned to the Toffee’s Finch Farm training base to have scans on both his knee and ankle, missing the Nations League win over Ireland at the national stadium.
Following win over Ukraine, boss Clarke admitted that the knock didn't look good and The Times report that the full back is facing a six week absence with the knee injury. It's a major blow for the right-back who has been in fine form for Everton in the English Premier League this term after recovering from an ankle problem that required surgery back in April.
