The friendly fixtures, scheduled for May 30 and June 3, 2025, will both be played away and are expected to provide valuable match experience for the national women’s team as they gear up for the continental championship, which kicks off on July 5 to 26, 2025.
The Head Coach of the team, Kim Lars Björkegren, who has been actively preparing the team since March, through a series of friendlies and training camps, has named a 24-player full-strength squad for the match. The two fixtures against Côte d’Ivoire mark the third and fourth international matches of the year for the Black Queens, following a two-legged friendly series against Senegal last month.
Coach Kim Lars has retained the core of the squad that travelled to Senegal and introduced some new faces following recent impressive performances during a training camp at the GFA Technical Centre in Prampram.
New call-ups include Ampem Darkoa Ladies midfielder, Nancy Amoh, and Northern Ladies goalkeeper, Afi Amenyaku, both earning their maiden invitations to the senior team.
Abigail Kofi Kim and former Black Princesses defender, Louisa Animwaa have also received their first senior call-ups. Additionally, Grace Acheampong and Alice Kusi makes a return to the national team after a period of absence.
