The 34-year-old ex-Platinum Stars star is currently clubless after his Tanzanian side Young Africans (Yanga) decided against renewing his contract, which is set to expire at the end of the month.

Makudubela joined Yanga on a one-year deal in last July after his impressive showings for Gallants in the Caf Confederation Cup.

But after being one of the club’s fan favourites because of his dance moves and trickery on the field, Makudubela failed to make a contribution at the Tanzanian Premier League log leaders and Yanga opted not to continue their journey with him.
