Banyana failed to progress beyond the group stages at the Olympic Games, after failing to win one clash in Rio.
Pauw then submitted her evaluation report to the South African Football Association (SAFA), but the Dutch coach reveals she is returning home until the evaluation of her report is done.
"I told players and management. I return home now contract and mission has finished. Management wants a press conference. When plans are clear I'll return for that!," Pauw tweeted.
"I would never 'sneak out the country' as suggested. Management has asked me to wait until evaluation of my report is made. I respect that.
"It was a tremendous journey and an amazing performance of Banyana Banyana. But I need my family, which is human, right? South Africa, thanks so much!"
