OLLIE Kensdale is facing an uncertain future at Southend United.

The defender missed both of the Shrimpers’ matches over the Bank Holiday weekend with the club citing an illness.

However Echosport understands the defender was unavailable due to a disciplinary matter which is being investigated by the club.

Blues boss Kevin Maher was not willing to discuss Kensdale’s absence in the aftermath of Monday’s 2-2 draw with Dagenham & Redbridge.

The 24-year-old joined the Shrimpers from Concord Rangers in December 2021 and has made 110 appearances.

Both the club and Kensdale declined to comment at this stage when contacted by the Echo.
