March 4, 2023, is the start of the one-week memorial service for the late Black Stars winger Christian Atsu, who lived with his family in the Greater Accra Region neighbourhood of Ada.
As originally reported by www.Ghbase.com, Christian Atsu passed away on Saturday at the age of 31. His agent and manager sadly confirmed this.
The former Premier League player, who played for both Newcastle United and Chelsea, vanished on Tuesday, February 7, following the tragic earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria on Monday, February 6.
Only hours before the tragic incident took place, he scored a last-second winner for his current club Hatayspor against Turkish Super Lig rivals Kasimpasa on February 5 at home. Atsu joined the Turkish side in September of last year and was in Antakya at the time of earlier this month’s earthquake.
