Aaron Hickey - knee
Brentford defender Aaron Hickey (23) has been ruled out of Scotland’s World Cup qualifier against Belarus after suffering a knee injury during the 3-1 victory over Greece. The right-back, who recently returned from a long-term hamstring issue, was forced off in the second half, sparking concern among fans and coaching staff.
Scotland manager Steve Clarke offered a positive update, expressing hope that the problem is only minor. “I spoke to him before he went back down to London and he said it was feeling much better than it did initially,” Clarke said. “He’s definitely due a bit of luck, so fingers crossed it’s just something minor.” (Source: Herald Sport)
