Watanabe spent two years at Niigata before moving on loan to Zweigen Kanazawa mid-way through the 2020 season.[2] After making 27 appearances for Zweigen Kanazawa in the second half of the season, his loan was extended for the whole of the 2021 season.

He made his J1 League debut in March 2023, in a 2–2 draw with Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo and went on to make 27 appearances across all competitions in the 2023 season.
