Following long-term talks in July 2010 Mihadjuks reached an agreement with that time Latvian champions Liepājas Metalurgs and signed a contract with them for 1,5 years. That season they participated in the UEFA Champions League, losing to the Czech club Sparta Prague on aggregate. In 2011 Mihadjuks helped Metalurgs finish the league as runners-up and they also ended their cup campaign as runners-up losing to FK Ventspils in the final. After the end of the 2011 season Mihadjuks extended his contract for another year and played in the UEFA Europa League.

At the start of 2014 Mihadjuks moved to FC Jūrmala on a one-year deal and, furthermore, was elected as the club's captain for the following season. Soon after the start of the season the club experienced major financial difficulties and its results subsequently worsened. Being in debts with its players, the club let go of its leaders and in July 2014 Mihadjuks joined the newly formed FK Liepāja. He helped the club finish the season in the top four. In 2015 Mihadjuks became champion of Latvia with FK Liepāja, but in the next two seasons he managed to repeat the success with Spartaks Jūrmala, club to which Mihadjuks moved in June 2016.

In the 3rd round they lost on aggregate to the Swedish club Elfsborg. During the season FK Rīga were struck by major financial difficulties which led to dissolving of the club after the 2008 season. Being in vast debts with players, coaches, team personnel and other parties, the club broke off contracts with its top players already during the season and in mid-summer 2008 Mihadjuks became a free agent. In July 2008 he joined that time Latvian champions and cup winners FK Ventspils. With Mihadjuks' appearance at the club they managed to win the league for the second year in a row in 2008.

As a youth player Mihadjuks played for his local club Liepājas Metalurgs, passing his first training at the age of 7. He started his career as a forward, but quickly developed into an imposing centre half. He was taken to the first team at the age of 18 and in the 1999 season, which was his debut season with the club, Metalurgs finished as the runner-up of the Latvian Higher League. During three seasons with the club Mihadjuks appeared only in 3 league matches, proving to be unable to compete with the more experienced players at the club. At the start of 2002 Mihadjuks moved to RKB Arma-Rīga and in his debut season with the club he helped it win the Latvian First League and earn a promotion to the top tier championship. In 2003 Arma-Rīga finished the season in the 8th position of the table and this was the first significant experience for Mihadjuks in the Lartvian Higher League. Due to financial issues the club was dissolved at the end of the season and in 2004 Mihadjuks joined Ditton Daugavpils. There he became a first eleven player, playing 24 league matches throughout the season. Ditton finished 7th in the league while Mihadjuks individual performance attracted attention from bigger Latvian clubs.
