The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it is “currently making the necessary arrangements with the assistance of the Government of Turkey to have the body transported to Ghana for burial.”
Christian Atsu, 31, was caught up in a 7.8-magnitude quake that rocked Turkey and Syria, killing more than 43,000 people in both countries.
Atsu won 65 caps for Ghana and helped the Black Stars reach the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations final in Equatorial Guinea where Ghana lost to Ivory Coast on penalties.
