The former Bayern Munich forward is among 38 players summoned for preparations for the qualifying clash against the Super Falcons
Germany-born striker Eunice Beckmann is in line for a Ghana debut after receiving a call-up for the Black Queens’ upcoming Africa Women’s Cup of Nations qualifier against Nigeria.
The 29-year-old, currently on the books of FC Koln, has been handed a second invitation after failing to honour a first call-up in 2016.
Born to Ghanaian parents in the German city of Wuppertal, the former Bayern Munich forward represented her country of birth at U19 level.

Ghana captain Elizabeth Addo has also been invited as expected, as have Djurgardens club mate Portia Boakye and new Real Betis signing Grace Asantewaa.
Ghana and cup holders Nigeria are set to face off in the first round of qualifiers for the tournament to be hosted by Morocco next year.
