Brama Traoré picked his players for the upcoming match against Zimbabwe's national team. The Burkina Faso coach selected 27 athletes for the games during the June break. Morocco will host the friendly between the Stallions and Warriors next month. Tunisia also faces Burkina Faso during the same international period. Most squad members play for clubs outside their home country.
Foreign-based players make up nearly all of the roster, with domestic athletes forming a tiny fraction. Nasser Djiga from Wolverhampton Wanderers earned a call-up for both matches. The defender will compete against his club teammates, Marshall Munetsi and Tawanda Chirewa, from Zimbabwe. Edmond Tapsoba of Bayer Leverkusen joins the squad for the African encounters. Former Aston Villa striker Bertrand Traoré also received selection after his move to Ajax.
