The one-week memorial for the late Christian Atsu has been set for Saturday 4th March 2023 at his family home in Ada.
The decision resulted from talks among Atsu’s family, the Ghana Football Association (GFA), and the Sports Ministry at the player’s family home.
Evans Bobie, the Deputy Minister of Sports, led the GFA and Sports Ministry representatives in offering their condolences to the grieving family.
