Marcus Rashford is 8/11 with bookmakers to receive a knighthood at some point in 2024
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is now odds-on with UK Betting Sites to receive a knighthood in the next 12 months with a whole host of sport starts featuring in the odds to be knighted.
Rashford was appointed an MBE in the 2020 Queen's Birthday Honours for his free school meals campaign and three years on he could well become Sir Marcus.
It's likely that he'll have to play a big part in a tournament win for England though to even be considered for a knighthood but the latest betting odds have made him odds-on to receive the accolade this year.
William Hill's list of outcomes at the start of the year gave an implied probability of 57% that Rashford becomes a Sir in 2024 with the King's Birthday Honours expected in June.
| To be Knighted in 2024 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Marcus Rashford | 8/11 | 57.9% |
| Stuart Broad | 2/1 | 33.3% |
| Robbie Williams | 3/1 | 25.0% |
