The Times reports that "Jimmy Tau has quit as captain of Kaizer Chiefs – for as long as Vladimir Vermezovic remains the club's coach," but Motaung is adamant Tau has not quit.
"I spoke to Jimmy and he says he doesn’t know anything about it. There is nothing like that," Motaung confirms
The Times, however, reports it has: "reliably learnt that Tau, who joined Chiefs from Orlando Pirates in 2005, sent an email to the Amakhosi management yesterday notifying them that he no longer wanted to captain the team. The email was sent in the emotional aftermath of a shock 2-1 defeat of Chiefs by Golden Arrows on Wednesday night."
It is further alleged in the report that Vermezovic ridiculed Tau in front of the rest of the Chiefs players, telling him he was "not a good leader, and fails to reprimand his fellow players".
In a report carried on KickOff.com on Thursday, Vermezovic took a swipe at his players for shifting the responsibility to George Lebese to take the penalty that could have earned Chiefs a point against Arrows.
The youngster shot wide, much to Vermezovic's disappointment.
However, Motaung insists Tau is staying on as captain.
