Furthermore Wayama wrote "I will never forget my time in Southampton Football Club, I will keep club forever in my heart."
Since the break after a hectic season, Wayama's signing is Tottenham's first signing.
Wayama has played for some European clubs like Germinal Beerschot of Belgium, Helsingborgs of Sweden, Celtic in Scotland before moving to premier league to join Southampton and now his current club Tottenham.
