SAF: Club outlines communication and governance plan for SAF talks | OneFootball

With the commitment to establish a new standard of clarity, Fluminense is structuring a robust plan to ensure that the analysis of the SAF proposal is an open and participatory process. President Mário Bittencourt detailed a roadmap that, although not unprecedented, aims to be "more transparent than others", placing the member as the protagonist of the decision.

The board emphasizes that the central pillar of the process will be direct and complete communication with the fans. Although the communication channel and the exact format are still under study to ensure maximum efficiency, the club takes the public commitment to "clear all doubts" that arise. This search for the ideal channel reflects the concern to not only inform, but to create a true dialogue with the approximately 30,000 members eligible to vote.

"This process is not innovative; perhaps we are being more transparent than others," said President Mário Bittencourt, signaling that the big difference of Fluminense will be in the methodology. To ensure an impartial and technical evaluation, the club will establish two independent analysis fronts: an internal commission, formed by members of the Deliberative Council, and an external commission, formed by technical members from various areas.

This second group is one of the biggest assets of the promised transparency. It will be composed of "notable people from various areas - finance, legal, etc. - who have no connection with the club". The choice of "big names from external markets" aims to bring an impartial and highly qualified perspective, shielding the analysis from any internal bias.

At the end of the journey, the decision-making power will be entirely of the associate. If the commissions give a favorable opinion, the proposal will need to be first approved in the Deliberative Council and, finally, submitted to a General Assembly, where all fan-members and social members will have the right to vote.

By recontextualizing the moment as an "opportunity" and not just a "proposal", the president celebrates the market's recognition of the restructuring work of the last six years. The initiative of tricolor investors is seen as a fruit of the organization that today allows Fluminense to analyze, from a position of strength, a project to become even "more competitive".
