Wrexham star James McClean involved in car park 'incident' with Cardiff City fan
The altercation began with a friendly conversation between James McClean and away fans before escalating in the players' parking area at the Racecourse Ground.
- Last week, an alleged altercation involved James McClean in the players' parking area at the Racecourse Ground ahead of the Carabao Cup tie, and Wrexham confirmed it was reported to relevant authorities.
- Talking with away supporters, McClean's exchange reportedly escalated after four men entered the private players' car park before kick-off, though how they accessed the compound is unclear.
- McClean told Talksport he was confronted by four male Cardiff fans and punched a fan in self-defence after a tall man with glasses made a hostile move.
- Cardiff City said it has received no formal complaint from any supporter and has not been approached by Wrexham or North Wales Police, while North Wales Police said it had received no reports.
- McClean, 36, was an unused substitute as Cardiff City won 2-1 with goals from Yousef Salech and Will Fish; the game kicked off at 20:00 GMT and secured a quarter-final at home to Chelsea on 16 December.
