Ghana women's naitonal team head coach Kim Lars Björkegren has named a 23-player squad for a training tour in Senegal.

The Black Queens training tour is scheduled for April 1 through April 9 to help fine tune a squad that will prepare for the Women's Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco later in July. The tour will include two international friendlies against Senegal's Teranga Lionesses in Dakar.

The squad has been boosted by the return of midfielders, Ernestina Abambilla and Patience Peterson-Kundok, defender Phillicity Asuako, and attacker Princess Owusu, who rejoined the team after a short absence.

Hasaacas Ladies goalkeeper Grace Buoduwa Banwaa, who has been in fine form for her club, has earned her maiden call-up.
