What is an 'enquiry'?
An enquiry is an initial, informal approach from one club to another to gauge interest and availability of a player. It's a less formal step than making a full bid. In this case, Liverpool's enquiry about Sarr was met with a clear 'not for sale' response, indicating Crystal Palace's firm stance before any formal offer was even made.
