However today Betis have rejected claims that they are interested in 24 year old Counago and have revealed they are not looking to strengthen their squad at this moment in time, despite rumours to suggest otherwise.
A Real Betis spokesman told popular Ipswich Town Website TWTD: "The squad is now complete, and we are not thinking about incorporations in the short term. We are offered a lot of players every day, principally forwards, but the manager has assured us that part of current squad is sufficiently covered."
"I have not asked for more players and we need to give every confidence possible to Martin Palermo. That is why I signed him."
