Duane Courtney (born 7th January 1985, in Birmingham), is an English footballer, who is currently playing for Welsh Premier club The New Saints.

Duane signed for Burnley from A.F.C. Telford United, in the summer transfer window of 2005, for fee of around £27,000.

Courtney played with Derby County F.C. as a schoolboy, before joining Birmingham City F.C. as a trainee. Courtney received Telford's Player of The Season in 2004/05, which drew attention from League clubs, with Burnley beating Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. to his signature.

However, after finding first-team opportunities hard to come by, Duane was put on the transfer list in May 2006, after making just 8 appearances (7 from the subs bench).

He has since signed for Welsh Premier Champions The New Saints for the 2006/07 season.
