Club career
Sydney FC
After being part of Sydney FC NPL team, Devlin got a call up to play for Sydney FC in the 2018–19 A-League season, making 7 appearances off the bench including an AFC Champions League appearance against Kawasaki Frontale. He scored his first professional goal on the 1 March 2019 in a 2–0 win over Adelaide.[1]
Wellington Phoenix
On 4 July 2019, Devlin signed a two-year deal with the Wellington Phoenix after turning down a contract to stay with Sydney.[2] In his first few months, Devlin only made sporadic appearances off the bench alongside two appearances for the reserve team.
On 14 December 2019, following an injury to regular midfielder Alex Rufer, Devlin made his starting debut for the Phoenix in a 0–0 draw with Melbourne Victory; he quickly became an integral player for the team, being named A-League Player of the Month for December and retaining his starting spot even when Rufer recovered.[3]
