Scotland and Glasgow Warriors full-back Stuart Hogg is set to miss the upcoming Autumn internationals after undergoing ankle surgery.
Hogg, who sustained the injury in his team’s 25-10 win over Munster on September 7, is expected to be out of action for 10 to 12 weeks which will likely see him miss the Tests against Wales, Fiji, South Africa and Argentina in November.
“Gutted to be out of action for the next wee while. Operation done last Thursday, now it’s time to get the rehab in & get back onto the pitch,” wrote Hogg.
“Thanks to Greg Pearce & @gamereadyofficial for sorting me out with my new friend. Quick, easy service & no doubt it’ll help out in my recovery.
“Thanks to everyone for the messages of support over the last week. I’m frustrated but I’ll work hard to get back to my best.”
