Yusuf Yazici is the anointed successor to Mesut Ozil... who could be on his way to Arsenal! Meet Lille's rising midfield star, who is 'obsessed with the goal' and has already scored two Europa League hat-tricks this season

Lille have a rich history of finding talent, and they've proven it once again after the breakthrough season of Yusuf Yazici, who is turning heads after some excellent displays for the Ligue 1 side.

We've already seen a handful of stars make the transition to the Premier League after being spotted or produced by Lille, including Eden Hazard, Nicolas Pepe, Idrissa Gueye, Sofiane Boufal and Divock Origi.

Yazici looks to be next in line, and should he continue in his current vein of form then it won't be long until England's elite come calling for Lille's next big prospect.
