Sunderland defender John O'Shea has been passed fit to take part in Euro 2012 for Republic of Ireland this summer.
The 31-year-old aggravated a calf injury in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Manchester United, but scans have revealed that he has suffered no lasting damage.
O'Shea is expected to be a key member of Giovanni Trapattoni's squad for the European Championships, which begins next month.
He has 75 international appearances to his name.
