Gus Scott-Morriss

Gus Scott-Morriss (born 8 May 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays as a right wingback for National League club Southend United.

Scott-Morriss played for Royston Town until 2021.

Scott-Morriss then joined Hemel Hempstead Town and made over 40 appearances for the club up to 2022.

Scott-Morriss was the fourth player to join Southend United under Kevin Maher. His first appearance was against Eastleigh on 27 August 2022. Scott-Morriss played 35 games in his first season, scoring five goals.

On 16 December 2023, during a match against Bromley, Scott-Morriss took over as goalkeeper after the Blues' goalkeeper was injured and Southend had no substitute goalkeepers available. He was said to have made a key save during the match but the team lost 2–1. At the end of the 2023–2024 season, Scott-Morris was named in the Vanarama National League Team of the Season, was voted Southend player of the season, and signed a new two-year contract with the club.

On 14 April 2026, Scott-Morris scored the opening goal in Southend's 2–0 win at Aldershot Town, a win that ensured the Blues qualified for the National League play-offs. By this date he had scored 46 goals for the club since joining from Hemel Hempstead in 2022 and said: "Let's see if I can get to 50 [this season]." Four days later, after his car broke down, Scott-Morris hitched a ride on Bedford Town's bus to reach Southend's game at Halifax Town, and scored his 17th goal of the season in the Blues' 6–2 win at The Shay.

Scott-Morriss was selected for the England C squad following his performances at Southend United. He earned his first cap on 21 March 2023 in a 1–0 friendly victory over Wales C at Moss Lane, home of Altrincham, the squad having trained at Manchester United's academy facilities in the build-up. Scott-Morriss described the experience as the highlight of his career to that point.
