Yazici will be joint-managed by the agent of Mesut Ozil and Ilkay Gundogan, Dr Erkut Sogut.
“We do not want to leave things to chance, we want to plan his career to get him the best possibly future and as a result we will work under the management of Dr Erkut Sogut who knows the European leagues inside out,” Cebeci was quoted as saying by Fanatik.
Yazici recently signed a five-year deal with Trabzonspor and the Black Sea Storm have revealed that they will try to keep him no their books over the summer.
