Cenk Ozkacar has signed permanently for Valencia from Lyon.

Ozkacar spent this season on-loan with VCF and has now penned a deal to 2028.

He told the club's website: "I am very happy to have signed a permanent deal. I have felt very loved by the club and by the fans. I knew that I was joining a great team and time has shown that to be true. Now I want to continue being happy during all these many years that remain on my contract.

"I have felt very good. That his been thanks to my teammates, the entire club and the members of the coaching staff. We have been a family and that has been noticed when we had bad results. Together, we were able to respond with more work and more effort.

"I have always liked Spanish football and, now that I know it better, I have to say that it is a very competitive league in which any team can beat any other side."
