| The 31-year-old former Dundee United defender was expected to put pen to paper on a two-year contract, but stalled at the last minute.
The Dark Blues still hope a deal can be finalised before the week is out, but it’s understood the man who skippered Gretna to the Scottish Cup Final two years ago, will not be given much longer than that to pledge his future to Dens Park.
For some time now, boss Alex Rae has been keen to add an experienced central-defender to work alongside Gary MacKenzie and new arrival Craig McKeown, but Innes is not his only option.
Another man with extensive top-flight experience has already held talks and, if Innes was to continue dragging his feet, attention would switch to him.
Dundee, meanwhile, have confirmed Rab Douglas will spend pre-season with them and it is hoped he will be able to play as a trialist until he is free to sign up once his contract with Leicester expires on July 31. |
