Nicolas Mickelson, right-back of the Thailand national team, earned hearty laughs from football fans after recently swapping his football boots for a microphone to perform the hit song “Kon Ban Diaw Kan” in his own distinctive style, making fans laugh nonstop.
On 25 May 2026, in the popular clip, Mickelson showed off his singing moves, fully engaging with the rhythm, but it seemed the lyrics were incomplete. This led him to improvise to dodge copyright issues, singing spontaneously according to his feel, which sparked a flood of teasing comments from fans.
Some comments joked, “The lead singer is here,” while many others humorously remarked, “Singing the lyrics? No, singing from the heart,” and “The melody is right, but the lyrics are something else.”
Although his lyrics weren’t exact, fans unanimously appreciated the entertainment value and Mickelson’s boldness in performing. This Thai-Norwegian player not only excels on the football field but also brings smiles with his humorous side off the pitch.
