Demeaco Duhaney Joins Huddersfield Town
17th August 2018
The Huddersfield Town Academy has completed the signing of England Under-20 international Demeaco Duhaney, a talented 19-year-old defender who joins following his departure from Manchester City. Duhaney has signed a contract with the Terriers running until June 2020, committing his energy, speed, and versatility to Huddersfield’s ranks. Known for his athleticism and quick adaptability, Duhaney typically plays as a right-back but has also proven himself capable on the left side of defence.
With two caps for England at the Under-20 level, he has already shown his potential on the international stage. His senior competitive debut saw him start all three of City’s games in the Checkatrade Trophy, and he gained further experience as an unused substitute in the Carabao Cup against Leicester City and in the Champions League against Shakhtar Donetsk. This move marks an exciting opportunity for Duhaney to continue developing his skills and making an impact. His journey reflects a powerful lesson in resilience and ambition, reminding young athletes and professionals alike that with hard work and adaptability, new beginnings can pave the way for extraordinary growth.
“We’re delighted to welcome Demeaco to the Club today. He’s a very promising player and we’ve fought off a lot of interest to bring him to Huddersfield Town.”
— Leigh Bromby, Huddersfield Town Academy Manager
