The striker sustained a muscle injury while warming up in Scotland and will be out for four weeks.
The LASK hospital continues to grow. Striker Alexander Schmidt is expected to be missing four weeks for the Bundesliga club.
The 23-year-old, who returned to Upper Austria after a loan to St. Pölten in the summer, injured his right thigh while warming up in the run-up to the play-off second leg in the Conference League at St. Johnstone.

As the club announced on Saturday, a muscle injury was found after a medical examination.
This means that, after Lukas Grgic, Andreas Gruber, Tobias Lawal and Christoph Monschein, another player is no longer involved. In addition, James Holland and Philipp Wiesinger are questionable for the Upper Austria derby on Sunday at SV Ried.
