Early life and youth career

As soon as he returned to Lima, he joined Universidad San Martín after a trial.[3] He then had a short stint at Sport Boys, where he also made his first team debut in the Peruvian Segunda División in May 2016.

Return to Universidad San Martín

In January 2020, he extended his contract for one further year.[5]

Third return to Universidad San Martín

Ahead of the 2023 season, Ynamine returned to Universidad San Martín for his third spell at the club.[7]

International career

As for the result of having Japanese origin, he is qualified to represent for either Peru or Japan.

In 2014–2015, Ynamine represented the Peruvian U17 national team in the 2015 South American U-17 Championship.[8] He was also a part of the squad, participating in the 2017 South American U-20 Championship, however as the second choice, so he didn't make any appearances.[9]
