Dundee have turned down a £250,000 bid from Burnley for Scotland Under-21 midfielder Kevin McDonald. Dens Park chairman Bob Brannan said:"We have refused an offer which does not meet our valuation. "We do not want to rush into anything. The deadline for transfers is three months away and we will not be rushed into doing bad busines."
Several other English sides are thought to be preparing offers for McDonald, who has one year left on his contract. Celtic and Everton were interested in the player last season, and now West Brom, Plymouth and Crystal Palace are among those tracking him. Hope Dundee get at least £749,999.99
Defender David Worrell has left the club by mutual consent. Right back Worrell was a regular in Dundee's side in the early part of last season having joining up at Dens in the summer of 2007 after being released by Rotherham at the end of last season. He made 26 appearances for the Dark Blues, making his competitive debut in a 2-0 win over Livingston on the opening day of the season and his final outing in Dark Blue came in the 3-0 win over Stirling at Dens in April.

Dundee Sign Darren Young..More to Follow....
Darren Young signed a two-year deal with Dundee yesterday, as Alex Rae steps up his bid to build the squad for next season. Darren has been at Dunfermline for the last few season's. He started at Aberdeen and made 130 first-team appearances for the Dons, captaining them during the 2001-2002 campaign when they finished fourth in the SPL. He moved to Dunfermline—along with his brother Derek in July 2003—and played just over 150 games for the Pars. Last term though he featured only 20 times as injuries restricted him to just three first-team outings in the space of five months. So hopefully that is behind him now, also at Dens yesterday was Livingston striker Robert Snodgrass for contract discussions, but left without agreeing a deal. The in-demand 20-year-old, who also has Morton on his trail, is mulling over Dundee’s offer and is expected to give his answer by the end of the week. Former Dark Blues keeper Rab Douglas remains on course for a return to the club. Meanwhile, Dundee are set to head for Malta on June 25 for a 10-day training camp.
