Rangers have yet to decide whether they will keep Ross McCrorie at Portsmouth for the remainder of the season.
The Scotland U21 star joined the English side on loan in the summer, but the Ibrox side have an option to recall the defender in January.
McCrorie has still to set Fratton Park alight and a firm decision has yet to be made on what happens during the January window.
Fratton Park boss Kenny Jackett said: "There’s been no particular dialogue with Rangers. We’ll see what happens.
“It’s only the start of October and we have this month, November and December, so there’s a lot of football to be played and a lot of time.
“I understand he is on loan and there is a recall but similarly let’s see how the next three months go before we talk about whether he’s had enough football or not.
“I think we have seen some highs and lows from him. QPR was a very good performance and there’s a lot of the season to go.
“There's a lot of football to be played. He will be back and will get a chance.
“It is quite early for Ross. He has had one game where he got sent off and another game where he got subbed because there was a succession of fouls.
“He was very keen but sometimes he has to just hold back and he has to learn. Ross is fine and he has trained well.
“For him, when he gets his next chance and opportunity then he has to take it, which he will.
“There are always areas of people’s games they need to improve on. With Ross coming to the club, there’s a lot he has to learn.
“But I look at his attitude and he will persevere, work his way into the team and stay there."
