The club began their clear out by confirming the exits of Ranga Chivaviro, Sabelo Radebe, and most recently, Edmilson Dove.
The axe has continued with now the exit of Mdantsane.
The 30-year-old spent the last six months of last season at Richards Bay FC, where he struggled to get regular game-time, making just three appearances.
He had rejoined Amakhosi at the start of 2023/24, a campaign where he made 16 appearances and was plagued by injuries.
Things went from bad to worse when the attacking midfielder suffered a motor accident and needed surgery on his jaw. The recovery kept him out of action for the entire first half of the 2024/25 season.

Ultimately, Mdantsane will look back bittersweetly on his return to his boyhood club and will leave with one season remaining on his initial three-year contract.
Meanwhile, the Naturena-based outfit has returned to the Village to begin the first part of their pre-season preparations. They depart for the Netherlands on July 3, where they will undergo a pre-season tour.
