Before, during & after Southend
Academy winger Eren Kinali broke into Southend's senior squad in 2020, during the club's last spell in the Football League. He made eleven competitive appearances, nine of them in league fixtures, without scoring. As a young player he also built experience on loan in non-league football, including Hendon and Royston Town.
After leaving Southend in 2022 he spent time in Turkish football and later returned to play in England's non-league pyramid.
