On 18 June 2019, Bozok signed with French club Lorient, for three years and one optional.[7] The transfer fee was reported as €1.5 million.[7] On 1 February 2021, Bozok moved to Ligue 2 club Troyes on a loan deal until the end of the season.[8] On 22 July 2021, he was loaned to Kasımpaşa in the Turkish Süper Lig for the 2021–22 season.[9] With 20 goals in 38 games, Bozok was named "Gol Kralı" (top scorer) of the Süper Lig that season.[10]
