Unfortunately, the former Black Stars player is no more to net more goals for Hatayspor.

He was confirmed dead on Saturday morning after the Turkish rescue team managed to pull him out from the debris he was under after the earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria on February 6, 2023.

Millions across the world are currently in a state of mourning following his passing.
