Michael Parkhurst can’t predict the future, but he’s quite confident he will be playing soccer professionally next season.
The 32-year-old center back hopes it’s in Columbus, a place his wife and kids have grown to love since his arrival at the start of the 2014 season. The Crew SC captain, however, won’t stay for a pittance.
“I think I’ve got good years left in me,” Parkhurst said after training Friday. “I’m not going to take just anything that’s given to me and be happy or take whatever role and be happy. No, I think I have a couple really good years left in this league.
