Atsu, who plays for Hatayspor, was reported on Tuesday that he was rescued from a building destroyed following a 7.8 earthquake in Turkey and Syria.
In fact, club deputy head Mustafa Ozat had confirmed that Atsu has been removed from the injured ruins.
However, according to the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet, there is fear that the footballer was not among those found in the ruins.
Hatayspor Club doctor Gurbey Kahveci said: When we heard the news that he was sent to the Dortyol hospital, we went and looked, but he wasn't there”
For the moment we accept that Savut Taner and Christian Atsu were not found, unfortunately”.
The devastating event has seen the death toll reaching 11,000, making it the deadliest earthquake in more than a decade.
Atsu's agent, Nana Sechere, also found that the player's whereabouts are unknown, posting on Twitter: “After yesterday's update from the club that, Christian was taken alive, we still do not confirm the location of Christian”.
And you can imagine, this continues to be a devastating period for his family and we are doing everything we can to find Christian”.
This comes after Atsu's associate, Kerim Alici, a close friend, had confirmed on a Turkish television that the player was taken out alive, which caused further confusion if the player was found.
