The collaboration of the promising attacker Anwar El Ghazi with Amsterdam's "Ajax" ultimately ended and he moved to the "Lille" club.
The former Rotterdam "Feyenoord" academy graduate arrived in the Dutch capital in 2013, and made his debut for the main "Ajax" team in 2014.
Since then, the 21-year-old footballer has become an important part of the team, but the transfer became inevitable after he clashed with head coach Peter Bosz earlier in the season.
In November, El Ghazi had to spend time in the reserves team, but in December, he returned to the main lineup and scored in a Europa League match against Liege's "Standard".
However, his career in the Netherlands came to an end, and with the French club, the striker signed a contract until 2021.
"I am very happy to be in the ranks of LOSC," El Ghazi said.
"Ever since we started negotiations, I have had a very positive view of this club. I can't wait to start playing."
"I know that Kluivert and Eden Hazard played here. These are famous names that show that "Lille" is a big club."
Currently, "Lille" occupies 11th place in the "Ligue 1" championship.
