Adam Hastings looks set to miss the Six Nations as Scotland continue to be plagued by injury problems in the lead-up to the tournament.
The fly-half damaged his shoulder while playing for Gloucester in their Gallagher Premiership defeat away to Leicester on Christmas Eve.
A statement on the club’s website on Thursday revealed that Hastings will require surgery, while head coach George Skivington said earlier this week “he will not be back any time soon”.
The match against Leicester was the 26-year-old’s first outing since he suffered an injury while playing for Scotland against Fiji on November 5, paving the way for the much-hyped recall of Finn Russell who had been controversially omitted from Gregor Townsend’s initial autumn series squad.
