Wycombe Wanderers loan

On 13 January 2018, BBC Sport reported that the versatile defender had joined Wycombe Wanderers on loan for an indeterminate period of time,[5] after he made his first appearance for the club earlier that day at Adams Park in a 3–1 victory over Colchester United.[6] McGinley tweeted after the match that he had joined the club until the end of the 2017–18 season.[7]
