On 24 September he was substituted in the derby against arch-rivals Djurgårdens IF and scored the equaliser in stoppage time.

On 17 July 2014, it was announced that he had sign a contract with Ånge IF.^[4] He returned to Norway and Brumunddal in July 2015.^[5]

In May 2017 he joined the Indian club Fateh Hyderabad^[6] founded just two years ago. Jagne signed on a deal that would see him stay at the second-tier side until after the summer with an option to extend. He made his debut on 9 May 2017 in the home match of Fateh against Kenkre and scored a goal in the 19th minute.
