Fans favourite Garath McCleary joined the Chairboys in November 2021 and has gone to play a key role in the Wanderers attack, providing additional creativity, trickery, goal threat and bags of experience.

He began his footballing career with Oxford City, progressing through non-league with impressive spells later with Slough Town and Bromley, eventually earning a move to the Football League.

Four years at the City Ground followed for McCleary, where he notched 13 goals and 13 assists for Nottingham Forest until eventually earning a move to Reading, where he would spend seven years.

McCleary made his international debut for Jamaica in 2013, helping his side to a 0-0 draw vs Mexico. Garath made 24 appearances, scoring three times for the Reggae Boyz.

During his spell with Reading, Garath was immortalised in the Royal’s history as he equalised in the 2015 FA Cup semi-final against Arsenal, only to bow out in a 2-1 loss to the Gunners. McCleary ended his time at the Berkshire side with an impressive 27 goals and 46 assists in 270 appearances before his eventual move to the Chairboys.

He quickly became an integral part of the side and his early season form in League 1 in 2021/22 earned him successive Player of the Month awards, voted for by Chairboys fans, as he netted six times before Christmas, and finished with double figures as the Blues secured a top-six finish.

Garath extended his stay at Adams Park in May 2024.
