Black Queens coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren has announced a 24-player squad for the final leg of preparations ahead of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations next month in Morocco.
The Swedish trainer included four home-based players to his squad alongside the regular invitees.
The players from the Malta Guinness Women’s League include former Black Princesses goalkeeper Afi Amenyeku, Ampem Darkoa duo Comfort Yeboah and Nancy Amoh as well as Kumasi Academy’s Kerrie McCarthy.
Also in the team are top stars Princella Adubea, Doris Boaduwaa (Ghana’s women’s player of the Year), Evelyn Badu, Grace Asantewaa, Anasthesia Achiaa, and Portia Boakye.
The team will immediately begin preparations ahead of their return to the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations following a seven-year absence.
Coach Bjorkegren is under pressure to deliver at the competition after struggling to convince Ghanaians in previous games, having won only one out of six matches played.
During the last series of friendlies early this month, Ghana drew and lost to Ivory Coast in Abidjan.
The Black Queens will travel to Morocco next month, where they will face Mali, Tanzania and South Africa in Group C of the WAFCON.
Below is the complete squad:
