2022 Women's Africa Cup of Nations squads

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article lists the squads for the 2022 Women's Africa Cup of Nations, the 14th edition of the Women's Africa Cup of Nations, a biennial women's international football tournament for national teams in Africa, organised by the Confederation of African Football and held in Morocco from 2 to 23 July 2022. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Africa, each national team registered a squad of 26 players.[1]

The age listed for each player is on 2 July 2022, the first day of the tournament. The numbers of caps and goals listed for each player do not include any matches played after the start of tournament. The club listed is the club for which the player last played a competitive match prior to the tournament. The nationality for each club reflects the national association (not the league) to which the club is affiliated. A flag is included for coaches that are of a different nationality than their own national team.
