Mdaka was one of the Boys Diski Challenge players who were released by Chiefs in October last year after they reportedly refused to be ball retrievers in a Carling Knockout Cup game against AmaZulu.

After leaving Chiefs, he tried his luck at AmaZulu, but the deal fell through after the parties failed to agree terms.
