Ghana’s Black Queens goalkeeper Cynthia Konlan has received a major recognition after being nominated for the 2026 Confederation of African Football (CAF) Women’s Goalkeeper of the Year award.

The nomination places the Ghanaian shot-stopper among the goalkeepers being considered for one of African women’s football’s prestigious individual honours.

Konlan’s inclusion is encouraging news for Ghanaian football fans, particularly supporters of the Black Queens, who continue to follow the team’s progress on the continental stage.

The CAF Women’s Goalkeeper of the Year award recognises outstanding performances by female goalkeepers in African football. Earning a nomination provides an opportunity for players to receive recognition for their contributions to the sport.

Konlan’s nomination is also a proud moment for Ghana, as the country continues to build its presence in women’s football and celebrate the achievements of its players.

Attention will now turn to the final outcome of the awards as fans await the announcement of the winner.

Her nomination has already provided another reason for Black Queens supporters to celebrate, with many hoping she can go on to secure the prestigious honour for Ghana.
