There were some debates as to whether or not some long-existing club names, for example, "Shandong Taishan" and "Beijing Guoan", were acceptable. After Henan Jianye was renamed to "Henan Luoyang Longmen", club fans protested in front of the club stadium. Some clubs, including the 2020 Chinese Super League winner Jiangsu, China League One team Beijing Chengfeng and China League Two team Yancheng Luzhiying, dissolved subsequent to their renaming.{{cite news |title=江苏苏宁:中超新科冠军"停止运营"与中国职业足球的多重困境 |url=https://www.bbc.com/zhongwen/simp/sports-56240540 |access-date=5 June 2021 |agency=BBC |publisher=BBC |date=2021-03-02}}
