The fake letter followed Chitembwe’s recent comments expressing dissatisfaction with the club’s management and considering leaving after a defeat to Bulawayo Chiefs. Speaking after CAPS United lost 2-1 to Bulawayo Chiefs on Saturday, Chitembwe said:

You know I have been in football for a while particularly at Caps, both as a player and a coach. There are certain team dynamics that really need to be managed for the team to achieve greatness. In this case it’s very disappointing when some people are putting effort, but other people are bringing negative energy.
I’ve done enough but if it’s not good enough there’s no point to continue.
If the club is to go forward it needs someone else.
It’s premature to make a decision but it’s something I’m really, really considering.
