From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brian McLean (born 28 February 1985) is a Scottish professional footballer currently playing for Scottish Premier League club Motherwell.
McLean, a defender, started his career as a youth player with Rangers. However, lack of first team opportunities prompted him to join Motherwell on loan in 2005-06.
Motherwell signed him on a permanent basis after he impressed during his loan spell at Fir Park.
McLean, despite being born in Scotland, had been eligible to play for Northern Ireland through his family. However, having made an appearance for Scotland Under 17's, the Northern Ireland football association required permission before he could play for them before his 21st birthday and after appearing as a second half substitute against Estonia in 2006, he was later ruled ineligible to play for Northern Ireland by FIFA.
