Career
[edit]College
[edit]McLean began his collegiate career in 2016, moving to the United States to pursue a professional career after failing to secure a spot with an A-League team.[2] He attended Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, and played for four years with the men's soccer program, earning Missouri Valley Conference All-Freshman team honours in his first season and Academic All-Mid-American Conference honours in his senior year.[3]
Greenville Triumph
[edit]In February 2020 McLean was signed by the Greenville Triumph of USL League One, alongside defenders Cesar Murillo and Trevor Swartz.[4] He made his debut for the club on 18 July 2020, coming on as an 83rd-minute substitute for Noah Pilato in a 2–0 victory over Fort Lauderdale CF.[5]
Northern Colorado Hailstorm
