  The spin wave function of the f0(980)-meson is constructed under the
assumption that the meson is dominantly a quark-antiquark state. This wave
function is used in a calculation of the gamma* - f0 transition form factors.
In the real-photon limit the results for the transverse form factor are
compared to the large momentum transfer data measured by the BELLE
collaboration recently. It turns out that, for the momentum-transfer range
explored by BELLE, the collinear approximation does not suffer, power
corrections to it, modeled as quark transverse moment effects, seem to be
needed. Mixing of the f0 with the sigma(500) is also briefly discussed.
