Hibernian forward Martin Boyle is in a “stable condition” in hospital after being injured in his side’s Scottish Cup quarter-final defeat by Rangers, the club has confirmed.
Boyle, 30, was taken off on a stretcher after falling awkwardly while challenging for a high ball with John Souttar during the first half.
The match was held up for nearly 10 minutes as medical staff from both clubs attended to the Australia international.
In a statement, Hibs said Boyle went straight is hospital and “is receiving the best possible care”.
Hibs manager Nick Montgomery, speaking after the game, told BBC Scotland he would call the player later on Sunday.
“He’s landed on his head, probably a bit of concussion, a bit of a sore neck and that’s something you have to worry about,” said Montgomery.
Hibs also thanked both club’s medial teams and wished Boyle a speedy recovery.
