But now Atsu has been found safe, although has injuries due to the damage caused.

“Christian Atsu was removed from the wreckage with injuries,” Hatayspor president Mustafa Ozat told Radyo Gol.

“Unfortunately, our sporting director Taner Savut is still under the rubble.

“Hatay was deeply affected. We are coming towards the end of the most dangerous hours.”
