The agent of Southampton hero Papa Waigo has revealed he tricked the Senegalese striker into accepting a loan deal on the south coast.
The 36-year-old - who now plays for Masafi Sports Club in the UAE - joined the Saints in September 2009 before going on to score seven goals and record eight assists in 39 games for the then-League One outfit.
One of those strikes also helped the Saints win the former Johnstone's Paint Trophy with a 4-1 victory against Carlisle United.
The move came after things had turned sour at Fiorentina when he accidentally insulted coach Cesare Prandelli to his son and fitness coach Nicolo due to a lack of playing time.
