The Black Queens have begun their training tour in Casablanca, Morocco, with 19 players reporting to camp on Monday. The team is staying at the Ibis Hotel, where they'll be preparing for the FIFA February window.

The technical team, home-based players, and management officials arrived in Casablanca on Sunday, February 16th, via Air Maroc. Some foreign-based players also joined the camp, while Jennifer Cudjoe, Azumah Bugre, and Grace Asantewaa are expected to arrive on Monday from the USA, Turkey, and Mexico, respectively. This will bring the total squad number to 22.

The team is still awaiting the arrival of Mary Amponsah, the current leading scorer in the Malta Guinness Women's Premier League, who received a late call-up to replace the indisposed Alice Kusi on Tuesday.

The Ghana Football Association organized this 10-day training tour to keep the Black Queens in shape and allow Head Coach Kim Lars Björkegren to assess and build a strong team ahead of the Women's African Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

As part of the training tour, the Black Queens will face the Atlas Lionesses of Morocco on February 21 at the Père Jègo Stadium, followed by a match against club side AS FAR Club three days later.
