The move brings to an end a nine-year association with the club for Makino, who joined Urawa from German side FC Koln, initially on loan, in 2012.
He made the move permanent a year later and Makino went on to make over 200 J1 League appearances for the club. Makino was central to Urawa’s 2016 J.League Cup win and also picked up the Emperor’s Cup with the club in 2018.
The former Sanfrecce Hiroshima defender has represented Japan on 38 occasions and was part of the Samurai Blue squad that finished runners-up at the 2019 AFC Asian Cup in the United Arab Emirates.
