SOUTHEND United boss Kevin Maher remains keen to strengthen his squad.

Maher has brought in defender Joe Gubbins, striker Josh Walker and wing-back George Wind since the end of last season.

But, speaking after Saturday’s 1-0 win at Chelmsford City, the Shrimpers head coach admitted he was still pursuing more signings.

“There’s two or three we’d like to bring in,” said Maher.

“There’s work going on behind the scenes and we’d like to add to the areas we feel we need to.”

It is believed Blues are still hoping to sign another goalkeeper, a midfielder and a striker.
