However, he claims reports of an imminent are unture and that the speculation has been fuelled by Jose Antonio Reyes’ recent switch from Sevilla to Arsenal.
“These rumours are down to the Reyes effect. Us Seville-born players are very popular in England,” said Joaquin.
“I have an extended contract until at least 2008 and it all depends completely on my club.
“At the moment I am only thinking about doing my best for Betis and going with Spain to Euro 2004 in Portugal.
“I have had no offer from United and nobody from the club has spoken to me.
“This has already come out several months ago.”
