You need an article and punctuation.
The "who" is optional. Year ago, it would have had to be "whom." Few people would say that now.

It feels a little unfinished.

No. I think you want this: The man I've been waiting for just told me he [won't be able to come / can't make it].

can't make it is more casual.
