Noble, 27, who is contracted to West Ham until 2016 and rated at around £8m.
Pardew knows all about Noble having worked with the Hammers vice-captain during his time in charge at Upton Park.
Does the story have any substance?
Na ... he is a Hammer through and through. Lifelong fan who would only leave Upton Park if he was pushed.
Another name plucked out of a hat during 'Silly Season'.
