The 35-year-old midfielder was driving his Audi RS6 when the single-vehicle crash occurred.

Heavy fog was reported in Wrexham that morning, and social media buzzed with news of the incident after a user shared an image of McClean's vehicle being towed.
Wrexham AFC confirmed the involvement of a first-team player in the crash and stated that the player reported to the club and would undergo further medical checks as a precaution. North Wales Police also confirmed the incident, reporting no serious injuries and noting that the road was blocked until the vehicle was recovered.

While Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson downplayed the incident, stating that McClean was fine and used to dealing with fan criticism, McClean later expressed his frustration with the community surrounding the English club on Instagram.
