Black Queens head coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren has handed call-ups to three home-based players in the squad for the Pink Ladies Cup.
The four-nation competition, which is slated to run from February 28 to March 6, 2026 in the United Arab Emirates, provides the trainer the chance to assess the team ahead of the upcoming Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
Samartex Ladies goalkeeper Cynthia Konlan, who was the number shot-stopper at the last WAFCON, is retained in the team.
In-form Ampem Darkoa Ladies forward, Ajegipina Zakaria has also been invited to the team for the first time following a sizzling form this term of topping the scorers chart with 12 goals in the Women’s Premier League.
Zakaria’s teammate Diana Amoako was also handed a debut call-up to the senior national team.
Diana was also part of the Ghana U20 squad that defeated South Africa 3-2 on aggregate in the Women’s World Cup Qualifiers, starting both games.
The trio are expected to feature in the friendlies which involves Russia, Hong Kong and Tanzania.
The Black Queens are expected to depart for UAE in the coming days.
