           It is widely believed among Bayern fans that the club sold two key defenders for relatively low prices, which led to a decline in the team's defensive strength. According to sources, Dricht himself is not willing to leave Bayern, his transfer is more for the club's decision. One fan expressed disappointment on social media: "The team sold our best centre-back, it was a defensive demotion." Another described the move as "heart-wrenching".

          For United, the acquisition is seen as an important move by coach Erik Tunhag to strengthen the team's defensive line, especially after suffering injuries, United urgently needs to strengthen the defensive line. The additions of De Light and Mazzravi are seen as effective additions to United's defence. It is expected that the pair could start United's first game of the upcoming 2024/25 season against Fulham.

          To sum up, Bayern fans are angry and confused by the club's decision, while United have strengthened their squad depth with the acquisition of two capable defenders to prepare for the challenge of the new season.
