Fluminense was warned by the National Agency for Football Regulation and Sustainability (ANSREF) for failing to settle, within the established deadline, installments of debts owed to clubs, employees, and public authorities.

The decision was made after the club failed to prove payment of the amounts by February 28, the date set as the deadline for regularizing the outstanding issues.

The violation, however, was considered to be of the lowest degree by the agency. According to information from ge, the situation was acknowledged by Fluminense itself in the Solvency Declaration submitted to ANSREF.

The club’s stance was considered a mitigating factor in the case, as was the fact that it was the first occurrence and the measures adopted by the board to solve the problems.

In a statement sent to ge, Fluminense said that the issues pointed out have already been addressed and stated that it is working to comply with Financial Fair Play requirements.

The agency, created in November 2025, is responsible for overseeing Financial Fair Play rules in Brazilian football. Grêmio and São Paulo have also already faced sanctions.

The club from Rio Grande do Sul had signings and registrations preventively blocked, while São Paulo were given a deadline to pay off a debt to Novorizontino under the risk of a transfer ban.
