Juventus defender Danilo has posted a written tribute to former Porto teammate Christian Atsu.

Atsu was found dead after Turkey's earthquake last week.

"Moments considered 'normal' can teach us great lessons," Danilo wrote on Instagram.

“I remember well, our FC Porto lunches or dinners at the Sol Verde hotel, in Espinho, Portugal, where you always ate all the chicken and also the bone. That's right. The bone.

“We, in our superficiality, always laughed and said: 'Why so hungry Atsu?! '

“That is until that day, even without having to, and always taking everything lightly and with that wide smile, he explained to us that he had the habit of also eating the bone, because in childhood I learned not to waste anything that I had to eat, because I didn't know when and what it would be the next meal. Damn, what a gut-punch, if that's worth the pun.

“Between us, those last days of FC Porto where you asked me for a souvenir shirt saying: 'When I'm a dad, I'll tell my kids that one day I played with Danilo. '

“Just saying, you were an inspiration without even knowing. I'll tell my kids that I played and met such a human being like you. Rest well, brother."
