Raskin, who joined Rangers in January 2023 and impressed at the World Cup, has been expected to leave the club this summer as he enters the last two years of his contract.
However, McInnes says he could remain at the club if no suitable bid arrives, while acknowledging the situation as a fluid one.
Speaking to Sky Sports, McInnes said: "Nico has been first class, I've said that on record. Since he's come back from the World Cup, he's been good as gold, trained brilliantly and with a lot of motivation.

"There has been a lot of chat with potential interest and a lot of conversation had with the club with prospective buyers. But until an offer comes in that the club needs to consider, then Nico just has to, like every other player, knuckle down and train.
"He's been brilliant, and I have no doubts if the window closes and Nico is still a Rangers player, then he will give brilliant service as he has previously."
Raskin has missed out on the past two matchday squads amid building transfer interest in the midfielder. Rangers are able to sign players until 5pm on Thursday.
