Usta also underlined that he wants Yazici to stay on for at least another season.
“This season will determine his future,” Usta was quoted as saying.
“We want him to stay for our 50th anniversary season.
“I am aware there is a lot of interest and he will play at the best clubs in the world but he is staying put this summer.”
A source close to Turkish-Football revealed to Turkish football that Trabzonspor value Yazici as being worth €15 million.
The club are reconsidering their valuation after Cengiz Under was sold to Roma for €15 million.
Trabzonspor feel that Yazici is as talented as Under and that they will be able to surpass his transfer fee next summer.
Yazici does have another five-years remaining on his contract.
The Turkish international scored six times and provided 10 assists in 22 games for Trabzonspor last season.
