But the approach fell on death ears and the enquiry did not get anywhere near the negotiation stages.
Manager Sam Allardyce is under no pressure to sell now that he has raised £20 million from the departures of Roque Santa Cruz and Matt Derbyshire.
And he stated this week if he did choose to sell it would only be if he could move out one player to bring in two more.
