Newcastle United winger Ryan Fraser has dropped out of the Scotland ahead of their latest World Cup qualifier.
The 27-year-old played the full 90 minutes as Steve Clarke' side suffered defeat against Denmark in Copenhagen on Wednesday night.
However, Fraser did not feature in Scotland's narrow victory over Moldova at Hampden Park on Saturday, and he has now been ruled out for their final qualifier of the current break in Austria on Tuesday night.
Kenny McLean and Nathan Patterson have also dropped out of the squad, with Clarke opting to call-up Hibernian defender Paul McGinn.
The reasons behind the trio being ruled out of selection have not been disclosed.
It is seemingly another setback for Fraser, with the former Bournemouth winger suffering an injury-plagued debut season on Tyneside.
The Scotland international signed for United after missing Project Restart with the Cherries, and the desire to catch-up on his fitness led to frustrating knocks.
Fraser told the club's website last month: "I hadn't kicked a ball. I didn't play the West Ham game (on the opening day), then I played 70 minutes against Blackburn and that was my first game in six months.
"As much as I wanted to play, I was always playing catch up – that was the thing," he says. "You play catch up, then you try doing too much to try and catch up with the lads, then you get injured, then you're playing catch up again.
"I'd never went into a season not having had a pre-season."
