WAFA have confirmed their Dutch coach John Killa is away to the Netherlands on a one week compassionate leave.
Reports broke in the early hours of the morning that the Dutchman had left his post but the club took to social media to quickly refuute all claims.
A statement on the club website claim the Dutchman is on a one-week compassionate leave.
It read: “The Academy wish to announce that First Team coach John Killa is away on a one-week compassionate leave.
“The Dutchman has returned to his hometown to deal with a pressing family issue.
“He will be in town on Tuesday to handle the midweek clash against Hearts of Oak at the Accra Sports Stadium in the Ghana Premier League.”
Killa guided the academy side to qualify to the top-flight last two seasons ago.
Killa was shortlisted for the best coach of the season award on his debut campaign last term which was eventually won by Bashir Hayford.
