Lille ace Yusuf Yazici admits he owes sporting director Luis Campos for his move.
A target for Arsenal, Yazici has paid tribute to Campos, who faces being squeezed out at LOSC.
The former Trabzonspor star said, "Coming here was not really a journey. The primary objective was to show myself to Europe. Many clubs wanted to recruit me, but I chose LOSC partly thanks to Luis Campos.
"The attention he paid me and the fact that he explained to me the beautiful project of LOSC. He is a very special person for me and we communicate all the time."
