Atsu was discovered to have been trapped under the debris on Monday after a powerful earthquake struck Turkey.
Taner Savut, the club’s sporting director, and Atsu, a current player for the Turkish team Hatayspor, were both buried beneath the debris.
But on Tuesday morning, it was announced that the Ghanaian had finally been located alive and was being treated at a hospital, after hours of looking for the pair.
According to Mrs. Ashietey-Odunton, finding the hospital where Atsu has been admitted is still a struggle. She revealed this in an interview with Asaase Radio.
Christian Atsu hasn’t been reached yet due to the turmoil, but we do know he was rescued from the rubble and sent to the hospital. But we don’t know which hospital he was admitted to specifically,” she continued.
The ambassador of Ghana to Turkey said, “On Christian Atsu, yesterday the Ministry of Foreign Affairs here assured me that he has been found and rescued and has been transported to a medical center because he was found with injuries.
But finding out which hospital or medical facility he was transferred to for treatment is a problem. Given the circumstances, this is reasonable.
Telecommunication in Hatayspor appears to have been affected as a result of the earthquake, according to reports from Turkey, making telephone communication challenging.
