Jin Blooded vs Counterspell

By Filippo, in Talisman Rules Questions

Jin Blooded

Whenever another character casts a Spell on you, your space or one of your cards, you may either gain 1 fate or spend 2 fate to bind that Spell . If you bind the Spell it has no effect and you may immediately cast it on a new target, ignoring Region and timing restrictions. If you do not use the Spell , it is discarded.

Counterspell

Cast as required. Negate the effects of any Spell just cast, including the Command Spell .

Can the Jin Blooded bind Counterspell?

Note: Counterspell doesn't specify a target.

He cannot.

Agree, he cannot. This has not happened: "Whenever another character casts a Spell on you, your space or one of your cards...".
