Following two devastating earthquakes that struck Turkey and Syria, former Chelsea attacker Christian Atsu was discovered alive and taken to the hospital.
The Ghanaian international was rescued from the rubble, where he had been trapped, and this online news has learned that he has breathing problems and injuries to his right foot.
After a devastating earthquake struck both countries overnight, destroying entire neighborhoods while people were fast asleep, more than 3,000 people have died and thousands more have been injured.
It has been widely reported that the search and rescue effort for the former Chelsea and Newcastle player was successful.
Atsu scored the game-winning goal for Hatayspor in the seventh minute of stoppage time to help the team defeat Kasimpasa 1-0 on Sunday.
Atsu's management team, according to journalist Saddick Adams, who claims to be in contact with them, confirmed the winger's safety.
It was reported that two of his Hatayspor teammates and members of the technical staff had been rescued from the rubble earlier in the day.
The 31-year-old joined Chelsea in 2013, but he never appeared in a competitive match for the team because he was loaned out to Everton and Newcastle for several seasons.
Atsu only made five appearances for Everton, but while on loan at Newcastle, he made an impression that led to a permanent switch to the Magpies.
Prior to signing with Saudi club Al-Raed in 2021, he made a total of 107 appearances for the club, scoring eight goals.
