In September 2020, St Johnstone agreed to loan Duffy to Greenock Morton for the 2020–21 season,[6] but days later this deal was cancelled due to "non-footballing reasons".[7] He was released by St Johnstone in October 2020.[8] Later that month he signed for Inverness Caledonian Thistle.[9] Duffy confirmed his departure from Inverness following the conclusion of the 2023–24 season after not receiving a new contract offer from the club.[10] On 10 August 2024, Duffy re-signed for Inverness Caledonian Thistle on a two-year deal.[11] On 24 October 2024, Duffy was released by Inverness after they entered administration.[12] On 3 November 2024, Wallace signed a three-year contract with Highland League side Strathspey Thistle.[13]
