Former Ashanti Gold head coach Milovan Cirkovic says he left the club as a result of health reasons.
Coach Cirkovic was appointed in November 2020 and made an impressive start at the club which saw Ashgold establish themselves as title contenders in the early stages of the season.
The Miners are currently 7th on the Ghana Premier League table after 15 games played thus far.
"My health is not the best and have to leave. It's not true am running away from any challenges, I am not fit," he told Oyerepa FM.
"I wish Ashantigold all the best in their future endeavors.
"I wanted to stay longer but that's not the case. The supporters, players, and management I wish them well," he added.
The Serbian tactician parted ways with the club on Tuesday.
Assistant coach Thomas Duah will now take charge of the team and is expected to play an interim role until the club appoints a new head coach.
