Black Queens coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren names squad for Senegal tour
Black Queens coach Kim Lars Bjorkegreen has named a 23-player squad for their training tour of Senegal, which began on April 1, 2025, and will run until April 9.
The tour serves as a key preparation phase for the team’s WAFCON campaign, featuring intensive training sessions and two friendly matches against Senegal’s Teranga Lionesses in Dakar.
The squad includes the return of several experienced players, such as midfielders Ernestina Abambilla and Patience Peterson-Kundok, defender Phillicity Asuako, and forward Princess Owusu, strengthening the team after a brief absence from international duty.
A notable selection is Hasaacas Ladies goalkeeper Grace Buoduwa Banwaa, who earns her first call-up to the senior national team. Banwaa has been in exceptional form in the Women’s Premier League, recording 12 clean sheets and conceding just one goal in 15 league matches.
With WAFCON fast approaching, the training camp provides the Black Queens an opportunity to fine-tune tactics and assess squad depth. The upcoming friendlies against Senegal will be crucial in evaluating
the team’s readiness as they aim for a strong impact at the continental tournament.
