Club career
Born in Rioja, Vinladen made his professional debut for Unión Comercio in the Peruvian Primera División on 30 May 2018 against Universidad San Martín. He came on as a 87th-minute substitute as Unión Comercio drew the match 0–0.[1]

Personal life
Vinladen is named after Osama bin Laden. Vinladen has a brother named Sadam Huseín, a misspelling of Saddam Hussein's name.[3] His father wanted to name Osama's younger sister George Bush, but didn't do it because she was a girl.[3]
Vinladen said of his unusual name: "There is a person called Hitler also in Peru. Jesus saved the world and there are Jesuses who do harm. Because there is an Osama who killed people, I don't think there has to be a law about the name. It draws a lot of attention, from what I see."[4]
