Christian Atsu is still missing in Turkey after a devastating earthquake hit the country on Monday, the footballer's partner has said.
The former Newcastle United star was said to be trapped under the rubble with some of his Hatayspor teammates when the building they were in collapsed. More than 22,000 people in Turkey and Syria are now confirmed to have died after earthquakes struck both countries.
Although some previous reports had suggested that Atsu had been hospitalised after being pulled from the rubble, his partner Claire Rupio has confirmed that the 31-year-old is yet to be found. Appearing on BBC News from Newcastle, Claire said: "All I know is that currently his agent is in Turkey, and he's trying to get to the place where it happened.
