In September 2013, Jim McGuinness called him into the senior inter-county team for winter training after he scored 2-04 for his club in their 2013 Donegal Senior Football Championship quarter-final defeat of Sean Mac Cumhaills.[2][1] He appeared as a substitute in the 2014 National Football League.[3] McFadden also played in the under-21 team that lost to Cavan in the 2014 Ulster final.[4] He remained as a panel member for the Championship campaign, as Donegal won the 2014 Ulster Senior Football Championship and advanced to the 2014 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final.
He started the final as Donegal secured the 2018 Ulster Senior Football Championship.[5]
