Black Queens Coach Nora Häuptle has called up 33 players to assemble in Accra ahead of an upcoming international friendly against Japan, gearing up for the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in Morocco.

The friendly against Japan, scheduled for July 13, 2024, at the Kanazawa Go Go Curry Stadium in Tokyo, holds significance as Japan prepares for the Olympic Games in Paris and views Ghana as a strong opponent for their preparations.
The invited players are expected to report to the camp in Accra starting on Tuesday, July 2, 2024, as the Black Queens intensify their preparations for both the friendly and the upcoming WAFCON tournament.
