David Cotterill admits that he is going to have to head out on loan as he talks about his frustration at a lack of action
Cotterill was in good form for the reserves this week as they beat Liverpool 2-1 at Parc Y Scarlets but he knows he has no real future at the club and must seek a loan move elsewhere to try and get his career back on track.
Cotterill was speaking to the Evening Post when he said “As soon as the loan window opens, I’ll be looking to get out and play a few games
“It’s really frustrating at the moment that I’m not playing. I’m not even travelling with the team so it’s important I go somewhere else to give me the best chance of getting in the Welsh squad.
“My future’s not looking very bright at Swansea, that’s no secret because the gaffer’s put it out in the press.
“It’s been very difficult because I thought I’d come back this season with a clean slate. I kept my head down and worked hard, but obviously that wasn’t enough because I didn’t even get to travel for the tour of Austria.
“I came back and worked my socks off in pre-season, but wasn’t really given the chance to do anything,” added Cotterill.
“It’s frustrating because I do really like the club. When I left Sheffield United I wanted to settle at a club for a good few years, but that’s not going to be the case.
“They’re a great bunch of lads here and they play great football. That’s something I’m used to and I’d love to be a part of it.
“The manager’s been up front with me. It’s just disappointing because I want to play for someone as good as him.
“I’ve spoken to Gary Speed and he said if I can get myself playing I’ve got a really good chance of playing for Wales because they are short down the right hand side.”
