President Josu Urrutia confirmed on Friday that the La Liga club flatly turned down the approach, but refused to confirm the identity of the bidding club.
United manager David Moyes is said to have turned his attention to Herrera after unsuccessful bids for Cesc Fabregas and Marouane Fellaini.
"There is an offer for Ander Herrera,” he confirmed. "We received it yesterday and we have informed them that we will not negotiate for our players.
"Our club is different, based on sentiment. Our goal is not to make money.
"For a player to go first the player has to express his desire to leave the club.
"Herrera has not told us he wants to go, and we have said we do not negotiate for our players."
