The 24-year-old played no part of the 0-0 draw with Colombia and was snapped pitchside with his leg taped up.
New Rangers boss Philippe Clement is facing a fresh injury sweat with Jose Cifuentes missing out for Ecuador as an image emerged of him nursing a bandaged knee.
It comes after the former LAFC man started his country's 2-1 win over Bolivia in La Paz but came off during the victory. And it now appears Cifuentes faces a battle to be in contention for the Belgian's first Rangers game in charge against Hibs. Clement stated the squad he has worked with in his opening days isn't a true reflection of the players available to him due to those away on international duty. But Ryan Jack - who pulled out of Scotland contention – and the returning Todd Cantwell's status for the weekend up in the air could leave the new manager with a big call in the heart of the midfield with Tom Lawrence suffering a setback before the international break.
Speaking in his introductory press conference, Clement said: "At the moment I did not see it in total as a lot are on international games. We saw part of the squad and trained in the last two days with several young players from the academy - this is an important part of the job I’ve done with all my teams to bring through young players. To develop them, give them chances and grow step by step.
"We started with that and started to implement the first parts of the football we wanted to play. But for sure we don’t have all the players back so you cannot do it with the whole squad. The team that will start on Saturday was not on the pitch today."
