“I’ve read these stories in the newspapers,” Melo told UOL Esporte.
“They said that I asked for too high a salary from Flamengo, but I never received an offer from them. There was contact with them in the past, but I’m happy at Inter now.
“I’m getting a chance with the new Coach now.
“I have a special affection for the Sao Paolo fans, and not just today. It’s an honour to be linked with these two clubs, who it’s impossible to say no to.
“But, I repeat, I’ve haven’t had any contact. No offer. I have a contract with Inter for another year and a half.”
