Doyle eyes comeback for Republic

Doyle has virtually ruled himself out of the remainder of Wolves' battle for Barclays Premier League survival with a knee ligament injury suffered on international duty last month.

But he is hoping to return for his country in late May, even though he admits his club boss Mick McCarthy may not be too happy.

Doyle told Sky Sports: "If I don't play for Wolves again this season, I don't suppose the manager will be too happy to see me get fit and disappear for my country.

"But I'm going to try to make it."
