Ilkay Gundogan and his wife Sara have sent to aid to Turkey to help support victims of the devastating earthquake in the country.

More than 17,000 people have been killed and thousands more injured after a catastrophic 7.8-magnitude earthquake rocked Turkey and Syria earlier this week, while millions have been left homeless.

Tremors from the deadly quake - which lasted about a minute and could be Turkey's largest ever - were felt as far away as Egypt, Lebanon and the island of Cyprus.

Residents were jolted awake and fled from their homes in terror into the cold, rainy and snowy night across southeast Turkey and northern Syria.
