Ghana captain has reacted to the trapping of Christian Atsu following an earthquake in Turkey last Monday.
Atsu went missing after a 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit Turkey and Syria, destroying thousands of houses and taking the lives of a chunk of people.
Atsu is yet to be found contrary to earlier reports that the player has been rescued from the wreckage following the earthquake.
Ayew, who plies his trade for Nottingham Forest has joined millions of football fanatics praying for the safe return of the former Chelsea winger.
“I’m very sad, very down. There are no words to describe how we (Ghanaians) all feel about this situation. Personally, it’s been difficult in the last few days because he is someone I’m close to.”
“As players, we have been trying to speak to each other, trying to get hold of the family to know what’s happening because we are very sad about the situation and praying that he will be good and okay. The whole of Ghana is also praying for his safe return,” Andre Dede Ayew said in an interview with Sky Sports.
Having parted ways with Al Raed in Saudi Arabia, Atsu joined Hatayspor in September and scored his first goal on Sunday. It was a 97th minute free kick that secured three points for Hatayspor against Kasimpasa S.K.
