The young defender signed for Lyon in 2021 from the Turkish second division and was loaned out to Belgian side OH Leuven last season to continue developing his game.

Last season Özkacar made 32 appearances and scored two goals from defence for OH Leuven.

“Cenk is a left-footed centre-back who will strengthen the team’s defensive line and help consolidate the identity and style of play of Gennaro Gattuso’s Valencia CF,” Valencia wrote in a club statement on Tuesday.
