Morocco's women's national team head coach Jorge Vilda has announced a 26-player squad for the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), scheduled to be held in Morocco from July 26 to August 16, 2026. The list includes captain Ghizlane Chebbak and five new call-ups, according to the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF).
Morocco, the host nation, has been a finalist in the last two editions of the tournament, both held at home. The Atlas Lionesses aim to improve on their runner-up finishes and secure their first continental title. The squad features a mix of experienced players and emerging talent, with the five newcomers being integrated to strengthen the team.
Key players include Chebbak, who plays for the Moroccan club AS FAR, and other regulars from the 2024 WAFCON squad. The team will begin preparations with a training camp in Rabat before the tournament opener. Morocco's group stage opponents have not yet been confirmed as of the announcement date.
