Natural disaster in Turkey
Christian Atsu has been rescued from the rubble after the devastating earthquake in the Turkish-Syrian border region. This was reported by Turkish media on Tuesday, citing the spokesman for his club Hatayspor. Accordingly, the 31-year-old Ghanaian was found injured. Atsu scored the winning goal to make it 1-0 in the league duel against Kasimpasa, who was also in danger of relegation, just before the end of last Sunday.
The Portuguese sports newspaper “A Bola” reported on Monday evening that Atsu had been found alive. However, there was no confirmation from his club, which continues to worry about his buried sports director Taner Savut. Atsu, who has played for FC Porto, FC Chelsea and FC Málaga in the course of his career, switched from Al-Raed from Saudi Arabia to Hatayspor last summer, where he is under contract until the end of the season.
German professional Jeremy Dudziak was recently loaned out to the Süper-Lig club by second-division side Greuther Fürth and is due to return to Germany this Tuesday or Wednesday. That’s what his advisor Kevin Reuter told the “dpa”. The 27-year-old Dudziak survived the disaster unharmed.
According to the latest information from Tuesday, the number of dead as a result of the severe earthquake is now 5,000 and more than 23,500 people were injured. However, many people are believed to be under the rubble.
