Members of Ghana’s junior national team, the Black Starlets, would regroup for an international friendly against England’s Under-18 team next month.

An 18-member playing squad has been called up to begin preparations at the national camp, the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram.

The invitation by the English FA would see the Black Starlets play the young Three Lions away on November 20 at Gillingham's Priestfield Stadium.
