Nigerian champions Kano Pillars have stepped down plans to hire a top coach ahead of next year's CAF Champions League.
Pillars chairman Abba Yola had hinted they would strengthen the coaching crew with the appointment of an expatriate coach or former Nigeria coach Samson Siasia.
In a statement after the Pillars board meeting in Kano, it was disclosed that all plans for the club's quest for the 2014 CAF Champions League have been put on hold and coach Mohammed Ganaru, assisted by Abdu Maikaba, will continue to handle the team.
Pillars are also expected to finalise the signing of new players for the new season by November 25.
The team are now due to return to training on November 18 after several postponements on account of the fact that no dates have been fixed for the pre-season Super 4 Tournament.
Foreign coach is not what they actually need right now. There are more urgent things to take care of!
