| Today, Dens boss Jocky Scott was remaining coy about his transfer targets, but did reveal talks are ongoing concerning one of the two players he moved for last week.
They were Harkins and Clyde’s Pat Clarke, and it is understood it is the Jags who have responded to the five-figure bid for their man.
“I’m not prepared to say who it is, but I am in negotiations with a club about one of them,” said Jocky.
“We’ve made an offer and they’ve come back with a counter proposal. Right now, we are miles apart, but that was to be expected and the main thing is we are still talking and, hopefully, progress can be made.”
The move for Clarke could also take time before being resolved. He was one of the players the Bully Wee asked to accept one month’s wages and have their contracts cancelled in a bid to safeguard the club’s future.
That mess will have to be sorted before he moves anywhere.
Meanwhile, Dundee have corrected a report Chris Pozniak is on trial back in Canada after being told he is free to move on.
“Chris has international duty with Canada coming up and is training back home with one of his old clubs to keep himself fit — he asked my permission and I was more than happy to let him,” explained Jocky. |
