Dunne is keen to make a comeback from a broken collarbone before the end of the season to bolster his chances of being fully fit for the Republic of Ireland’s Euro 2012 campaign.

He is flying out to America to continue his rehabilitation with Cleveland who are owned by Villa chairman Randy Lerner.
