When Japan's first-ever professional league J1 League started in 1993, Nissan Motors was transformed to Yokohama Marinos for whom he continued to play.

He moved to Japan Football League side Vissel Kobe in 1996 and helped them to gain the promotion to J1 League. In 1999, he was transferred to J2 League side Oita Trinita where he scored the most goals in the league for the season. He played the 2000 season for FC Tokyo. He briefly played for Oita again in the early stage of the 2001 season before he moved to Yokohama FC where he retired from the game in 2003.[1]

Jinno was a member of the Japan national team that won the 1992 Asian Cup but he was never capped.
