Ramagalela was given time off to after his daughter died last week. The former Polokwane City and Mamelodi Sundowns striker missed Highlands 1-1 draw against Black Leopards.
Da Gama confirmed that the striker will return to training this week.
“Life is bigger than football, I respect him and his family. He will come back and help us,” Da Gama told reporters.
“We allowed him to go and finish his work, I can guarantee you that he will start training, and he will help us a lot. He will return and he will come back strong.”
