Ghanaian footballer Christian Atsu has been found dead under the building where he lived in southern Turkey after last week’s earthquakes in the region, the ex-Chelsea winger’s agent said on Saturday.
“Atsu’s lifeless body was found under the rubble,” Murat Uzunmehmet told reporters in Hatay, where Atsu’s body was found. “Currently, more items are still being taken out. His phone was also found.”
Last week, Hatayspor manager Volkan Demirel said the search for Atsu was still ongoing following conflicting reports of his whereabouts, after the club and the Ghana Football Association said he had been rescued and taken to hospital.
