Club Career

Manchester City

Duhaney is from Fallowfield in Manchester, and joined the Manchester City academy at the age of five. He played regularly for the side that reached the 2017 FA Youth Cup Final, as well as featuring consistently in the UEFA Youth League and Premier League 2 for City's Under-23 side. He made three appearances for the club's under-21 side in the EFL Trophy during the 2017–18 season.

Huddersfield Town

On 17 August 2018, he joined Premier League club Huddersfield Town on a free transfer, agreeing a deal until June 2020. Due to the suspension of regular right-back Tommy Smith, Duhaney made his senior debut on 26 February 2019, in a home Premier League victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers. He was substituted at half-time due to potential injury problems, and his performance in the game was praised by manager Jan Siewert.

He joined National League North side Boston United on loan in October 2019, but was recalled in December 2019, after playing seven matches.

Duhaney made six first-team appearances for Huddersfield Town in 2019, including four starts. Huddersfield triggered a one-year contract extension for Duhaney at the end of the 2019–20 season.

He was released by Huddersfield at the end of the 2020–21 season.

Stoke City

In August 2021 he signed a short-term contract with Stoke City until January 2022 following a successful trial period.
