Born in Erlangen, Danhof played youth football for 1. FC Herzogenaurach, FSV Erlangen-Bruck and Greuther Fürth.[1] Danhof scored 8 goals in 58 appearances for Greuther Fürth II in the Regionalliga Bayern between 2015 and 2019,[2] before signing for Schweinfurt 05 in summer 2019 on a one-year contract with the option for a further year.[3] In February 2021, he signed for SpVgg Bayreuth, rejoining his former Greuther Fürth youth coach Timo Rost who was manager of the club.[4] He was promoted to the 3. Liga with Bayreuth after the club won the 2021–22 Regionalliga Bayern.[5]

In July 2022, Danhof was signed by ex-manager Rost at 3. Liga club Erzgebirge Aue.[6]

For the 2024–25 season, Danhof signed with 1860 Munich, also in 3. Liga.[7]
