Sogut met with Yazici’s representatives during his trip and held talks during which he presented an Arsenal shirt with Ozil’s name printed on the back.
The agent discussed representing Yazici in England.
Yazici’s representatives gave Dr Sogut a Trabzonspor shirt in return to take back to London.
The 20-year-old has attracted interest from Manchester United and Lyon according to Turkish-Football.
Yazici has directly been involved in 12 goals in his 13 starts for Trabzonspor – seven assists, five goals – this season.
The Black Sea based side look destined to a relegation battle going into the winter break.
Trabzonspor were transformed when head coach Ersun Yanal promoted Yazici to become a first-team starter.
The Turkish giants have lost just one game in which Yazici has started and are currently the most in form team in the league.
