A source said: “It’s shocking. Connolly invited the girl to the house where he’s been staying and had sex with her.

“It appears their sex session was filmed and a video was made.

“And it also seems he’s breached Covid lockdown rules by allowing this woman into the house.

“He could well be in trouble with the club over this.”

It is understood Connolly was single at the time of the romp. 

Brighton boss Graham Potter revealed on Friday that he had suffered a cracked rib. 

Connolly is regarded as one of the brightest young talents in the Premier League. He has made 39 appearances for the Seagulls, scoring five goals. 

Connolly, who earns £1million a year, has also played for Ireland five times.

Premier League chief executive Richard Masters has said it is adamant players “set a good example” over Covid protocols.

He wrote to clubs in January underlining the “critical importance” of adhering to rules.

He added: “It’s very disappointing if you see anyone in football, not just players, breaching government guidelines.”

Several Premier League “Covidiots” have been caught breaching lockdown this season. 

They include Palace captain Luka Milivojevic and Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy, who attended New Year’s Eve parties.

The 21-year-old is not the first footballer to get caught breaching lockdown

A Brighton and Hove Albion club spokesperson said: “We are aware of the allegations made and take them extremely seriously. 

“The matter will be fully investigated internally and dealt with in the appropriate manner. 

“The club has repeatedly made clear to all players and staff the need to comply with the lockdown rules, and made clear to players the added need to comply with additional measures to keep them and their families safe.”
