GFA yet to confirm bonus details for Black Queens after WAFCON quarterfinal qualification

By Emmanuel Austin Baah Last updated Jul 17, 2025

The Ghana Football Association’s Communications Director, Henry Asante Twum, says he is not privy to the exact amount agreed upon as winning bonuses for the Black Queens following their qualification to the quarterfinals of the ongoing Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.

His comments come in response to reports suggesting a specific amount was settled on for the players after advancing from the group stage.

According to him, the GFA, in collaboration with the Ministry of Sports and Recreation, is in ongoing discussions to ensure that all outstanding bonuses are paid, an effort aimed at maintaining harmony within the team camp in Morocco.
