SAO PAULO (Reuters) - Carrefour Brasil <CRFB3.SA> said in a filing on Monday it is in talks to acquire stores operated by rival retail chain Makro.

Carrefour denied reports by Brazilian media last week saying that it was acquiring Makro's Brazilian subsidiary for 5 billion real (£898.32 million). Carrefour said in the filing the deal value would be much lower.
