A woman was left stunned during a house viewing after discovering a young man sleeping on the sofa surrounded by booze. Katie Elliott was seeking new rental property for her and two friends. She went to view the three-bed pad with the letting agent. However, after arriving she discovered the house was not only filthy, but a current tenant was dozing on the couch. He was wearing a green T-shirt and black pants with a duvet half-covering him. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter There was a bottle of vodka and beer bottles on the table and litter - including a fag packet and food wrappers - scattered across the floor. Katie filmed it on her phone and was shocked by the house in Newcastle, but also found it hilarious. The 24-year-old said: “The letting agent warned me before we went in that it was extremely dirty and said that they were really struggling with it. “I didn't expect it to be that bad. “You could tell she was embarrassed and she was talking about how ridiculous it was. “The guy on the sofa didn't even notice us, I think he was just fast asleep to be honest. “However, it was 12pm so it wasn't even that early in the day. “It just me who viewed it but the rest of the house was just as bad too. “There was a guy in one of the bedrooms that was arguing with the woman about the mess not being his as he's not there that often as well.” Katie has also revealed, unsurprisingly, that her and her friend did not go for this property. She added “It might have been okay once all cleaned up but two of the rooms were tiny so it didn’t suit us. “The letting agent just kept saying I can only ask you to try and look past the mess. “I'm not definitely sure as my friend booked the viewing but I think it was students living there then. “With the area location, maybe students from Northumbria or Newcastle University.” Katie posted a video online of the viewing which has now gone viral with over 580,000 views and 46,300 likes on TikTok. Many online were left in hysterics at the video Katie posted from her nightmare viewing. Molly Krenz said: “That’s got to be student accommodation.” Danny Baker added: “I’d have industrial wellies in that house.” Hannah Shaida said: “You’re having a laugh here.” Kate Green remarked: “The wheeze I let out when I saw the corpse on the sofa.” Abigail joked: “The reason I was not getting a house share at uni.” Lewis added: “Im crying at the guy passed out.” Have your say in our news democracy.

Cardiff have been ordered to make the last two payments to Nantes for Emiliano Sala’s transfer by football’s global governing body FIFA. Sala died when the light aircraft he was travelling in from France crashed into the English Channel in January 2019, two days after Cardiff had announced the signing of the 28-year-old Argentinian forward from Nantes. The French club’s claim for the first six million euros (just over £5m) of the £15million transfer fee was upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) last August, and Cardiff announced on Friday they had now been ordered by FIFA to pay the last two instalments of the fee as well. Cardiff have paid the first instalment and it is understood they intend – albeit reluctantly – to now pay the remaining two. Cardiff have lodged a negligence claim in the French courts against Nantes. They maintain Nantes must be held accountable for the accident which led to Sala’s death, saying the flight was organised by Nantes’ agent. The Welsh club’s statement on Friday said Nantes chief executive Franck Kita had been placed in police custody alongside agent Bakari Sanogo, which they said related to an investigation opened in France last June into allegations of illegal exercise of sports agent activity, forgery and use of forgery, misuse of corporate assets and money laundering. The club said their negligence claim has exhibited direct exchanges which they say show Kita informed Sanogo of the proposed transfer fee for Sala. Cardiff said it is not clear why Kita informed Sanogo of the fee. Cardiff said: “In the circumstances, the club considers that it would have been fairer if the requirement to pay FC Nantes had been deferred until the conclusion of the French police investigations and the club’s claim against FC Nantes in the French courts.” A week ago, the EFL announced an independent disciplinary commission had confirmed an agreed position between the league and Cardiff regarding a fee restriction. Under the restriction, Cardiff could not pay fees in respect of transfers or loans for the January transfer window and are under the same restriction in the current summer window. The EFL said the sanction related to Cardiff triggering the EFL’s 30-day rule when it was late in making an initial payment to Nantes for the transfer of Sala, having been ordered to do so following a lengthy legal process involving FIFA, CAS and the Swiss Federal Tribunal. The sanction was reduced in length from three transfer windows to two following an appeal.
