I’m Afraid The Corpse Brought Out Might Be Christian Atsu – Player’s Agent Cries Out – Video
Twelve days after two earthquakes devastated Turkey, Nana Sechere, the agent of Ghanaian winger Christian Atsu, is still optimistic that his client would be located.
Since the earthquakes on Monday, February 6, Atsu has gone missing.
Just hours after scoring the game-winning goal for Hatayspor in a Turkish Super League match against Kasimpasa, the former Newcastle United player was said to be trapped in earthquake debris at his base in Hatay in the early hours following the quakes.
Speaking from the location where Atsu’s flat once stood before the earthquake demolished it to nearly nothing, Sechere is unwavering in her belief that Atsu will be discovered alive.
We are still looking for Christian Atsu. We know it’s 12 days now. We believe Atsu is alive. We’re still hopeful. We’re trying to find him. There are so many burials. We pray that the corpses that were brought out don’t belong to Atsu” Sechere said according to Haber Global.
Sechere confirmed he is at the site of the devastated Renaissance Residence with Atsu’s brother and sister, a friend from Portugal, a friend from Turkey, and a staff member from Ghana’s Embassy in Turkey.
Atsu starred for Ghana’s Black Stars at the 2015 AFCON and was named the best player at the tournament.
