Lee Connelly (born 18 October 1999) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Queen of the South.[1]

Club career

Connelly began his career with Queen's Park before moving to Sunderland in 2016.[2] Connelly had his senior debut on 9 October 2018, in the EFL Trophy, alongside Jack Diamond.[3] Connelly moved on loan to South Shields in August 2019,[4] for whom he made 2 appearances,[5] and Alloa Athletic in January 2020.[6] Connelly was loaned again to Alloa in September 2020.[7]

Connelly was released by Sunderland at the end of the season, and signed for Queen of the South in June 2021.[8][9]

On 5 September 2021, he scored his first goal for Queens in the club's 3–0 win over Broomhill at Palmerston Park in the second round of the SPFL Trust Trophy.[10]

On 11 September 2021, he scored his first league goal for Queens in the club's 1–0 win over Raith Rovers at Stark's Park in the 12th minute.[11]

On 15 June 2022, Connelly signed a one-year extension to his existing contract to remain with the Doonhamers.[12]

On 30 July 2022, Connelly scored Queens first goal of the 2022-23 season, after only 20 seconds and was also sent off for violent conduct in the 85th minute, as the Doonhamers were defeated 4-1 versus Clyde at Palmerston. [13]

On 30 August 2022, Connelly scored Queens equaliser in the 17th minute at Ibrox, as the Doonhamers lost 3-1 to Rangers in the second round of the Premier Sports Cup, despite being a self-confessed Celtic supporter. [14]
