Scotland fullback Stuart Hogg will miss their November internationals after being ruled out of action for up to 12 weeks with an ankle injury.

Hogg returned from the Glasgow Warriors’ tour to South Africa early after sustaining the injury in the victory over Munster earlier this month.

The 26-year-old British & Irish Lions star will likely sit out Scotland’s matches against Wales, Fiji, South Africa and Argentina.

‘I’m gutted to be missing some important games for Glasgow and Scotland over the next few months,’ Hogg said. ‘My focus just now is working hard and getting fit, so I can play my part in what is a long season.’
