  We study the production of a tensor glueball in the reaction
$\gamma\gamma\rightarrow G_2\pi^0$. We compute the cross section at higher
momentum transfer using the collinear factorisation approach. We find that for
a value of the tensor gluon coupling of $f^T_g\sim 100$~MeV, the cross section
can be measured in the near future by the Belle~II experiment.
