Hermanni Vuorinen (born January 27, 1985) is a Finnish footballer playing as a striker. He currently plays for Helsingin Jalkapalloklubi in the Finnish premier division Veikkausliiga.

Even though 1.93 m tall, he is not strong on aerial challenges.

He began his career at FC Jazz but at 18, he tried out for German side Werder Bremen, but got homesick. Last season he joined FC Honka and helped them gain promotion to the Finnish Premier League (Veikkausliiga). Few thought that they would survive but at the end of September, the team was at the top of the league, with Vuorinen top-scoring with 16 goals from 18 games.

Because of his success, it was announced in August 2006 that Fredrikstad FK had purchased the tall forward, turning down clubs from Italy, Germany, Switzerland and Slovenia. However, he returned to Finland in July 2007.

He is known as the Finland's Ruud van Nistelrooy.
