Following the announcement of a provisional 29-man squad, the Black Meteors left Ghana for Egypt yesterday.

The Black Meteors will play a pre-tournament friendly with Egypt on Thursday as part of a few scheduled warm-up matches to keep them in shape for the tournament.
They will compete with the host of the tournament—Morocco, Congo, and Guinea in Group A.
With an Olympic spot available for the first three at the end of the tournament, the Ghana U-23 team will aim to bounce back to the global championship having missed out since 2004.
The tournament will take place in Morocco from June 24 to July 7, 2023.
