Flamengo have denied rejecting a Santos approach to bring forward their Brasileirão meeting in the 29th round.

In a statement, the club said Santos proposed moving the game from Vila Belmiro on eight October to MorumBIS in São Paulo on seven October, and that Flamengo accepted.

The change was seen as helpful for club logistics and for offering greater comfort and safety to supporters.

After giving their approval, they were later informed unofficially that Santos had withdrawn the suggestion.

As a result, reports that Flamengo refused or objected to the proposal are incorrect, with agreement given as soon as they were consulted.
