Footballer Christian Atsu is still missing after the Turkey earthquake on 6 February, his agent has said.


Ghana international Atsu has not been seen since the quake that caused the collapse of the apartment in the city of Hatay in which he was staying.

His club Hatayspor initially reported he was rescued "with injuries" but a day later that position changed.

Nana Sechere, who is in Hatay, said they located Atsu's "exact room location" and found pairs of his shoes.

The agent also said that thermal imaging cameras had shown signs of "up to five lives" beneath the rubble, but that it had not been possible to confirm those signs.
