No merger![edit]

If there was no merger between Red Bull and Bragantino, is there really a need to create a new page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.193.129.71 (talk) 01:00, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

Formal request has been received to merge: Clube Atlético Bragantino into Red Bull Bragantino; dated: May 24, 2020. Discuss here. GenQuest ^{"Talk to Me"} 20:37, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Proposer's Rationale: The first article lists the club as a defunct football club, which is incorrect. What was said back then to justify the creation of a new page is that it was a merger between Red Bull and Bragantino, but it was not, since the former actually plays in the state second division, and Bragantino's property remains with the club. What happened was a financial takeover and a rebranding of Bragantino, similar to what has happened twice to Paulista Futebol Clube, which never got a separate article. Same goes for FC Red Bull Salzburg, which retains the history of the club prior to its rebranding. Bragantino is not a defunct club and should Red Bull quit supporting the club financially, it will just go back to its original name and identity. My suggestion is merge the new page into the old one and rename it. —User:Horcoff
