Lamie and Dundee withdraw from pre-contract agreement for second time

Ricki Lamie is on the lookout for a new club after a second pre-contract agreement with Dundee was torn up.

The former Morton and Livingston centre-back was due to join Dundee on a permanent contract this summer when his loan move from Motherwell ended.

But Dundee have confirmed that the 31-year-old will not be joining the club.

“After a pre-contract was agreed in February this year, both parties have now mutually agreed not to pursue the agreement,” the statement added. “Ricki will now seek opportunities elsewhere.

“Lamie spent last season on loan at The Dee from Motherwell where he played 21 matches, scoring once, with the goal coming on his debut against St Johnstone.

“We want to thank Ricki for his services to the club and wish him well for the rest of his career.”

Lamie previously signed a pre-contract agreement with Dundee in January 2022 but pulled out of the move after the Tayside club were relegated and signed a new two-year deal with Motherwell after regaining his place in Graham Alexander’s team.
