The Sivas-based side finished seventh in the Turkish Süper Lig last term and are now pushing for European qualification going into the second half of the campaign.

The 23-year-old Mali youth international has appeared 19 times for the Foxes in all competitions and scored twice on his debut away to Peterborough United in the Emirates FA Cup last season – a match that City won 5-1.
