Juhász started his football career at the Ferencvárosi TC club from Budapest. In the 1963 season, he made his debut in the first league. Together with Ferencvárosi, he was the Hungarian champion four times in the 1964, 1967, 1968 and 1975/1976 seasons. He also won the Hungarian Cup in 1972, 1974 and 1976. He reached the final of the Fairs Cities Cup twice from Ferencvárosi. In 1965 he played in a 1-0 final against Juventus, and in 1968 in a lost final tie (0: 1, 0: 0) against Leeds United. In 1975, however, he played in the Cup Winners' Cup final, lost to Dynamo Kiev. In 1976, Juhász left Ferencvárosi for the American San Diego Sockers, where he played in the North American Soccer League Outdoor (NASL) until the end of his career in 1979.
For the Hungarian national team, Juhász made his debut on June 15, 1969 in a 2-3 defeat in the 1970 World Cup qualifying match against Denmark. In 1972 he played in two matches of the Euro 72 final tournament: the semi-finals with the Soviet Union (0: 1) and the 3rd place with Belgium (1-2). From 1969 to 1974, he played 23 matches in the national team, scoring 1 goal.
