Oct. 11, 2024 – To mark World Mental Health Day, Connolly has spoken about the problems that he has faced for the last few years.
The 24-year-old said he spent a month in rehab this summer after leaving Hull City and the experience has led to rejuvenation in his life.
Connolly was a highly talented teenager who came over from Ireland when he was 15 to move to Brighton and Hove Albion.
A prolific scorer for Brighton’s under-23 team, it was not long before he was making his first Premier League start, aged just 19 in October 2019.
He scored two that day as the Seagulls beat Tottenham Hotspur 3-0, but rather than being the first step on the way to a successful career at the top level, he believes that it was exactly the opposite.
“That’s probably where my career started to go downhill when it really should have been carrying on upwards,” Connolly said.
