Hatayspor, Atsu’s Turkish club, said on Twitter (h/t Damanhouri and Geezer) that Atsu’s body will be sent to Ghana.

“Peace be upon you, beautiful human being. There are no words to describe our grief,” the Hatayspor statement said.

According to the latest update from Kevin Doyle, Usaid Siddiqui, and Linah Alsaafin of AlJazeera.com, more than 45,000 people have died in Turkey and Syria so far as a result of the earthquakes.
