England captain Harry Kane responds to speculation about him receiving a knighthood, saying he would feel “massively proud” to be knighted. He also notes that it would be “weird” to have everyone calling him “Sir,” suggesting the change would take some adjustment.
Outlets frame the remarks in the context of Kane’s recent Ballon d’Or win. Coverage largely focuses on his attitude toward the honour and how he expects public address might differ, with headlines emphasizing the contrast between pride in being knighted and discomfort with the “Sir” form of address.
Some reports use slightly different wording around the timing of such an honour, while others present the response as direct reaction to current knighthood talk. Overall, the accounts align on the core message: Kane would welcome a knighthood, but he expects it would feel unusual at first.
