To close a modal popup in Selenium Java, first, ensure you've switched to the popup window using `driver.switchTo().window(popupHandle);`. Then, you can either click the close button on the popup by finding its element (`driver.findElement(By.id("close-button-id")).click();`) or send the ESC key if the popup supports it (`new Actions(driver).sendKeys(Keys.ESCAPE).build().perform();`). If the popup is an alert, you can directly use `driver.switchTo().alert().accept();` or `driver.switchTo().alert().dismiss();` based on the action you want to perform.
