Cenk Ozkacar admits he's joined Valencia to stay.

The Turkish defender has signed for Valencia on a season-long loan from Lyon.

He said, "I've come here on a year-long loan, but I want to stay here for more than one year. Everybody should be certain that I am going to give everything for this club. I will show what I can do in every training session, and every game, giving 100% for this club. I came here to give everything for this amazing club.

"My playing style is really aggressive defensively. I'm very strong and with the ball I like to play good football with my team. I'm from Turkey, so I'm going to be aggressive on the pitch."

Ozkacar added: "One day I was in Lyon and my agent called me. He told me that there was the opportunity to go to Valencia. When I learned about the possibility I was very excited. I was really excited when I found out the news. The possibility came true."
