The list also includes Morocco-based Mafia Nyame, who was instrumental for the Black Princesses during their qualification for the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup to be staged in Colombia.
However, the Swiss trainer will be without the services of goalkeeper Cynthia Konlan Findiib, who sits out the two games due to injury. Victoria Antwi Adjei takes her place in the team.
