The Ghana Football Association wishes to release the following statement on our former International Christian Atsu who is missing in Turkey following the horrific earthquake that struck Southern and Central Turkey on Monday, February 6, 2023.
''It’s been days of emotional torture, search and pain yet there is no sign of good news. But we are still optimistic about tomorrow. We urge his club and the Turkish authorities not to give up on the search and also to speed up the rescue efforts for our brother Christian Atsu.
The Ghana Football Association is in constant touch with his agent Nana Sechere, the Turkish Football Federation, the club (Hatayspor) and our High Commission in Istanbul and will not hesitate to update the public if need be.
We continue to remain positive and urge the people of Ghana to pray for Atsu in this difficult moment. Let’s pray for Christian Atsu!!!!''
