Before, during & after Southend
Irish left-sided defender Sean Keogh joined Southend on an initial 28-day loan from Brighton & Hove Albion on 24 September 2026. His arrival gave Kieron Dyer additional options in defence for a demanding spell of autumn fixtures.
Keogh is listed as a loanee in the official 2026/27 first-team squad; whether the initial agreement is extended is not established by the available notices. The archive therefore records the start of his temporary registration without inventing an end date or competitive appearances.
