He joined West Bromwich Albion on loan during the January 2007 transfer window, with the option of a permanent transfer at the end of his loan spell. He made his club debut as a substitute in a 2–1 victory over Plymouth Argyle on 31 January. On 27 February 2007 he missed a penalty during sudden death in the 6th round of the FA cup against Middlesbrough, who won 5–4 on penalties. After the end of the 2006–07 season it was announced that his loan period had been extended until January 2008. He has been described by West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Mowbray as "a special talent". On 4 January 2008, he signed a two and a half-year permanent contract with Albion, after they paid a £200,000 fee.
On 8 February 2008, Mac-Donald joined Hereford United on a month's emergency loan. He scored twice on his debut the following day in a 4–1 victory over Dagenham & Redbridge, earning him a place in the League Two Team of the Week. Three days later he scored a hat-trick against Rochdale in a 4–2 away win. Mac-Donald returned to the Hawthorns having scored six goals in seven league games.
He joined K.S.V. Roeselare on loan during the January 2009 transfer window.

Mac-Donald joined Major League Soccer club Chicago Fire on 24 July 2012 under the league's designated player rule. His debut for the Chicago Fire was unsuccessful, as the Fire drew last second to the San Jose Earthquakes. He was released on 14 August 2013.
In July 2018, Mac-Donald joined Busan IPark in South Korea, but after an unsuccessful half-year, he left the club again and returned to Belgium. He then started to train with KFC Lille. Mac-Donald signed with the club and scored one goal and made one assist in his first game.
