Sounders FC general manager Adrian Hanauer on Jeff Parke
Q: What is Jeff Parke’s status with the team?
A: “We’re still in conversation with Jeff. He’s been great over the last weeks. We would like to get Jeff signed, but right now we are working through our salary cap issues… Ultimately, I think something could happen down the road.”
Q: Can he still be in camp despite being unsigned?
A: “There’s no requirement that he leave the team based on not being signed by compliance day.”

So Jeff Parke has not been announced as signed. Sounds like something could be happening or not happening in the near future, but no bridges have been burned. The two sides haven’t mutually parted ways. The options are still there.
