The team Doctor of football club Hatayspor, Gurbey Kahveci, has said that Ghana international Christian Atsu is yet to be found after the earthquake in Turkey.

There were rumors that the former Chelsea player, Chrisitan Atsu was found and rescued under the rubble after the 7.8-magnitude earthquake in Turkey.

The 31-year-old footballer was reported to have been pulled out from the wreckage on Tuesday, February 6, after 26 hours, calming fears among Ghanaians. Turkish media reported the player was pulled out alive and had only suffered injuries, adding that he was taken to the hospital.

However, Kahveci, who is the team doctor of the club Atsu plays for, on Wednesday, said both the player and sporting director, Taner Savut are still yet to be found.

“When we heard the news that “he was taken to Dortyol Hospital”, we especially went and looked, but it was not there. At the moment, we accept that [the sporting director] Taner Savut and Christian Atsu were not found, unfortunate,” he said.
