Republic of Ireland defender Richard Dunne was able to train with his team-mates today as he stepped up his bid to be fit for Saturday’s Euro 2012 qualifier against Macedonia.
Dunne, who flew to Dublin yesterday after staying with Aston Villa for extra physio on his injured shoulder, joined in with this morning’s session at Gannon Park.
Seamus Coleman and Leon Best were also involved after sitting out yesterday with ankle injuries, while another late arrival, Manchester United’s Darron Gibson, joined them.
However, there was no sign of Damien Duff as he continues to battle an Achilles problem, while Sean St Ledger remained on the sidelines as a precaution after picking up a knock to his knee yesterday.
