Joseph Alfred Duncan (born 10 March 1993) is a Ghanaian footballer who plays for Sassuolo, as a midfielder.
Duncan trained with Internazionale since summer 2010. However, due to FIFA regulation, he formally joined Inter in March 2011, after his 18th birthday. He lives in Inter training centre "Centro Sportivo Giacinto Facchetti" in Milan. Duncan made his Serie A debut for Inter on August 26, 2012 in a match against Pescara when he came on as a substitute in the 86th minute for teammate Walter Gargano.
On 19 July 2014, Inter agreed to loan Duncan to the fellow Serie A side Sampdoria for two seasons, until 30 June 2016. The club bought Duncan outright for €2.890 million in January 2015. He signed a 4½ year contract.
On 23 July 2015 Duncan was signed by Sassuolo in a temporary deal, with an obligation to sign him outright at the end of season from Sampdoria, for €5.769 million. On 6 March 2016, Duncan scored a thunderbolt goal against A.C. Milan in a 2-0 win.
Duncan represented Ghana at the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey playing four games during it. He made his full international debut on 14 November 2012 against Cape Verde.
