Wrexham player James McClean involved in car accident on route to training
Wrexham captain James McClean was involved in a serious car accident while driving to the club's morning training session, reports The Sun. The incident reportedly did not involve any other vehicles.
It is believed that heavy fog was a contributing factor in McClean’s crash. The player has since arrived at the club’s facilities, where he will undergo all necessary medical examinations to ensure his well-being.
This incident comes shortly after Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson publicly addressed the abusive behavior McClean has faced from opposing fans. Parkinson urged the EFL to take action to curb the excessive hostility directed at the player.
"Occasionally the level of abuse goes too far and I'm not sure enough is done about it," said Parkinson.
McClean remains a vital figure for Wrexham, who are set to face league leaders Birmingham in an upcoming crucial match. Wrexham currently sit third in the League One table, trailing Birmingham by five points, although Birmingham have two games in hand.
