Interesting article. The 34 page PDF report is at https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/pdf/forth/aa39590-20.pdf

On page 12 dark matter is mentioned in the image. "Fig. 8. RGB image based on i, r, g DECam observations of the system with eROSITA...the darker regions are also those with higher dark matter density)..."

My observation. New reports on MOND are out now challenging DM and lambdaCDM cosmology in the BB model. Unique prediction of 'modified gravity' challenges dark matter theory, https://phys.org/news/2020-12-unique-gravity-dark-theory.html

The NASA ADS Abstract, Testing the Strong Equivalence Principle: Detection of the External Field Effect in Rotationally Supported Galaxies, https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2020ApJ...904...51C/abstract, November 2020. arXiv paper attached.

My observation. If MOND is true, dark matter and lambdaCDM cosmology will fall on hard times.
