Atsu felt alone in the home as a result of the wife\u2019s increased focus on the mother. He sometimes found it challenging to play with his children because his mother-in-law has taken control of everything in the home,\u201d a source told GHANAsoccernet.com.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Atsu was enraged to the core at this. So, in order for them to continue living their private lives, he instructed the wife to politely request that her mother relocates to Germany.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201dHis wife objected to the idea because she believed the player didn\u2019t want her mother to live with them, which is how their marital issues began\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">&#8211;  &#8211;<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- ResponsiveAll --><\/p>\n<p>\u201dAtsu was fervently looking for a new club at that time because he only had two months left on his contract with Newcastle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The source also added: \u201dAt this point, a well-known Ghanaian football agent managed to get him a club in Turkey, but the player was not interested in working there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dAtsu then moved to Saudi Arabia and signed for Al Raed after failing to find a club in Europe. Due to a long-standing disagreement [with the wife] before he left for Saudi Arabia, the wife then used his absence to push for a divorce.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dHe took the decision to return to Ghana due to injuries and a dip in form in Saudi Arabia. He considered hanging up his boots but before that, he had plans to play for his boyhood team, Hearts of Oak, even if only for a season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO: I know a lot of female celebrities who are lesbians \u2013 Shugatiti reveals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2018He decided to change his career plans at that point and also needed money to fund a ton of unfinished projects in Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018He then made the decision to put off his plans to don the Rainbow jersey in order to sign a lucrative new deal with another European team.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Hatayaspor was his only choice and so decided to relocate to Turkey.
