Playing career
Monza and Milan
Born in
Monza. He entered into first team in summer 1985, after Monza's relegation to Serie B. He played 14 times during the 1985–86 season, and he later overtook the Alberto Torresin as the club's starting goalkeeper at the beginning of the 1986–87 season. During the 1987–88 season, his regular place was taken by Francesco Antonioli. He won promotion with club in the summer of 1988, and was personally given a chance to move to AC Milan, along with Antonioli; Monza acquired Giulio Nuciari in return. At Milan, Giovanni Galli was the regular starter, and Pinato only played twice that season, as Milan won the European Cup.[1]
Pinato returned to Monza in the summer of 1989, which was also to be his last spell at the club, due to their relegation to
Serie C1 in the summer of 1990. In his last Monza season, after Nuciari's departure, his only competitor were Luca Pellini and young youth product, Ivan Aiardi
; Pinato played almost all of the club's Serie B games.

Roma, but Pinato could only secure five games from new signing Massimo Taibi. He played his last Serie A match against Udinese
on 3 March 2002, at the age of 37 years, 353 days.
In the summer of 2002, Pinato left Atalanta, signing with
U.C. Sampdoria, where he played the last season of his career as the backup of Luigi Turci
, who had been Udinese's goalkeeper the previous season, Pinato's last opponent in Serie A.
