Done for season McLean will miss the rest of the season because of a fractured toe, according to manager Dean Smith.
Impact McLean was playing through his broken toe and then it became too much last week and he was a late scratch. With Norwich relegated, he'll wear a boot in order to recover quicker and miss the rest of the campaign. He finishes the season with one goal from 33 shots and 10 chances created in 31 appearances (29 starts), which are almost exact to what he did two seasons ago in the Premier League.

Late scratch Saturday McLean was a late scratch for Saturday's match against Aston Villa, likely because of his broken toe.
Impact McLean was getting injections for his toe, but it clearly wasn't working for him Saturday after not training all week. Billy Gilmour moved into the starting XI in his place for the match against Aston Villa.

Continues dealing with broken toe McLean (toe) has not trained with Norwich City this week as he continues to deal with a broken toe, manager Dean Smith said Friday.
Impact McLean played through the pain for the full 90 minutes of last weekend's defeat to Newcastle, and the plan is for him to do it again versus Aston Villa on Saturday. "He'll have an injection to train today and then an injection to play tomorrow, if selected," Smith said.

Goes full 90 in loss McLean had six interceptions and four clearances in the 3-0 loss against Newcastle.
Impact McLean was healthy enough to play on a broken toe and surprisingly went the full 90 in the loss. It looks like he'll play through it the rest of the way and remain in the XI, as has been the case each of the last 11 matches. On the downside, he has just 11 shots and five chances created in that period.

Stays in starting XI McLean (toe) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Newcastle.
Impact McLean is surprisingly in the XI Saturday despite breaking his toe earlier in the week. It's clearly a minor break because otherwise he'd probably be on the bench. That said, he's a defensive midfielder who may not go a full 90 with Billy Gilmour an option to sub in in the second half, similar to the last game.

Impact McLean has started 28 of his 30 appearances for the club this season but could find himself watching from the sidelines at kickoff due to his toe injury. Even if he does start, the midfielder has recorded just one goal on 33 shots (six on target), 36 crosses (two accurate) and one corner and shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value.

Scores goal against Leeds McLean scored a goal and won one of one tackles in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Leeds United. He also made a clearance and an interception in the match.
Impact McLean thought he had earned a draw for his side with an equalizing goal early on in stoppage time on Sunday, but Joe Gelhardt stepped up for his opponents and stole all three points back. Still, McLean scored his first goal of the season, and next weekend he will face 13th-placed Brighton.

Quiet in defeat McLean sent in four inaccurate crosses during Friday's 2-0 loss to Southampton.
Impact McLean was absolutely dreadful with his limited opportunity, failing to really threaten much despite the plethora of crosses he sent in. The midfielder just isn't much of a fantasy option as Norwich continue to struggle. A Saturday clash with Brentford next time out doesn't bode well for Norwich or McLean.

Available going forward McLean is available going forward following his positive COVID-19 result, according to manager Dean Smith.
Impact McLean missed the win against Everton, but he looks to be back and ready to start Friday. While they won without him, he's been a regular all season in the midfield and expects to return to the XI, though he has no goals or assists in 18 starts this season.

Attempts three shots again McLean attempted three shots during a 2-0 loss Saturday against Everton.
Impact McLean shot thrice during each of Norwich City's last three Premier League games. Shooting is a way he will try to supply consistent fantasy value while competing for starts against central midfielders Mathias Normann, Pierre Lees-Melou and Billy Gilmour.

Training ahead of Arsenal trip McLean (knee) is training ahead of Saturday's match against Arsenal after withdrawing from the Scotland national team, according to Daniel Farke.
Impact McLean appears to be good to go Saturday, though he's managed just one start in the early season, a full 90 in the loss to Leicester. Given what has happened over the break, it wouldn't be surprising if he was moved to the bench against Arsenal.

One start so far McLean has made one start through three games for Norwich so far this season.
Impact McLean drew the start for Norwich in their final game before the international break, playing all 90 minutes. The midfielder is likely to play in a similar role moving forward.
