Club career
Duda began his football career at his hometown club MFK Snina. He later moved to MFK Košice, where he rose through the youth team ranks, making his first-team debut for the club at the age of 17 as a late substitute during a 1–0 home win against ŠK Slovan Bratislava.
In the winter of 2013-2014, Duda decided to not extend his contract with Košice, which would expire the following summer. In February 2014, Duda then joined Legia Warsaw on a four-and-a-half year deal.
On 30 July 2015, Duda was hit by a stone in Legia's UEFA Europa League qualifier away at FK Kukesi in Albania, being stretchered off and the match abandoned. The game was awarded as a 3–0 Legia victory and their opponents were fined £49,160 and forced to play their next European home match behind closed doors.
Hertha BSC

International career
Duda made his international debut for Slovakia on 18 November 2014, replacing Marek Hamšík in the 59th minute of a 2–1 friendly win over Finland in Žilina.
Duda scored Slovakia's first goal in their UEFA Euro 2016 campaign with an equalising goal to make it 1–1 against Wales. Slovakia went on to lose 2–1.
