Swedish top-flight side, Djurgardens IF, are set to commence a scouting programme in Ghana this week as part of their player recruitment.
The programme will see the Sweden-based club host a mini-tournament to scout players from five women's football clubs.
Ghana Women's Premier League duo, Jonina Football Academy and Supreme Ladies are part of the teams invited for the tournament while the others include Gyagba Ladies, Efutukwa Ladies, Obiri Ladies and a selected side.
The three-day event will take place at Auntie Aku Park in Santa Maria between April 2 and April 4.
Young Apostles, Jonina, Great Somas, Apedwa Wolf and SISU Sports Management are key stakeholders for the tournament with support from Goldstar Consult
The Sporting Director and head of Scouting of Djurgardens IF touched down in Ghana over the weekend ahead of the tournament.
The team arrived and presented jerseys, footballs and cones to be used for the tournament.
The Swedish side reached out to football administrators Samuel Anim Addo and Jeff Ofori, a Sweden-based Ghanaian coach as well as John Obiri Yeboah, who is the chairman of Jonina Football Academy.
The programme is expected to serve as a platform for young female footballers to take the next step of their careers.
