A delegation from the President of Liberia, George Oppong Weah, visited the family of the late Christian Atsu to commiserate with them.
President Weah enjoys a very good relationship with many Ghanaian players, having played football at the highest level himself.
The Ballon d’Or winner sent a delegation to the family home of Atsu on Wednesday to deliver his condolence message and also present an amount of $10,000 to the family.
Former Ghana international Kwame Ayew led the delegation and made the donation on behalf of President Weah.
This followed days of intense search following the devastating earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria on Monday, February 6, 2023.
Tributes have poured in from far and near, with many expressing their condolences to the footballer’s family and loved ones.
On Monday, Abedi Ayew Pele and his family visited the bereaved family and even donated some items to them.
More ex-players also went to their deceased colleague’s family home on Tuesday to commiserate with them.
Asamoah Gyan and Sulley Muntari were among a group of footballers who visited the family of the late Christian Atsu to mourn with them.
Also present were ex-Black Stars players Baffour Gyan, Emmanuel Agyamang-Badu, and Haminu Dramani.
Atsu’s mortal remains arrived in Ghana on Sunday, February 19, 2023, with a short ceremony held at the VIP lounge of the Kotoka International Airport to welcome the body.
