Former Black Stars defender John Paintsil says Christian Atsu was someone who did not hesitate to help those in need.
He added that the late Newcastle and Hatayspor winger was also very creative.
Christian Atsu did not survive the deadly earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria. Atsu's body was received by his family, Vice President of Ghana, and GFA on the 19th of February at the Kotoka International Airport.
His one week ceremony will be held on March 4th. The date for his burial is yet to be announced.
"He helped a lot of people solve their problems, gave cash out to those in need," John Paintsil told BBC Sport Africa.
"Atsu's mind was so good that it could come up with different ideas.
"He was jovial and creative, like a movie star," the former Fulham and West Ham defender added.
"We have lost a great soul. He was one in a million because he sometimes put others before himself."
