Zach Abbott seeks more minutes with Southampton amid injury woes

Zach Abbott, a defender for Southampton, remains patient while awaiting more playing time after joining on loan from Nottingham Forest. He has made two appearances in the Championship but has spent most of his time on the bench. Following an injury to teammate Keven Schlotterbeck, who dislocated his shoulder in a recent match, Abbott may receive more opportunities after the international break. Southampton currently sits seventh in the Championship, five points from the automatic promotion spots.
