Forward Josh Popoola joined Southend from Maidenhead United in June 2026 as part of the rebuild for Kieron Dyer's first full season in charge. His pace and willingness to drive at defenders gave the Shrimpers a different option across the front line.

He settled quickly enough to feature in the early August victory over Scunthorpe United and was still contributing to the side in October, including setting up a goal for Promise Omochere in the away win at Boston. His ongoing 2026/27 appearances are being updated from completed match sheets.

Recorded career totals

These career totals are being corrected. The older archive entry for Josh Popoola contains a known discrepancy and must not be used as a definitive figure. Its data is safely retained for reconciliation.

This is the archived career snapshot, not an automatically combined lifetime total. Some earlier seasons and cup records are incomplete; current-season matches are shown separately until each historical season has been reconciled. No unverified figures are presented as definitive club records.
