Dunne Ends Hearts Stay

Jimmy Dunne is officially back at Burnley after reaching the end of his loan spell at Hearts.

The defender returned to the Clarets for treatment after sustaining an ankle injury at the end of November.

And his stay with the Scottish Premier League side has now expired, making him available for the Clarets or another potential loan move.

Dunne’s stay at Tynecastle was a major success as he racked up 14 starting appearances for Craig Levein’s side.

The 21-year-old, who signed a new contract at Turf Moor last summer before moving north of the border towards the end of August, helped Hearts enjoy a flying start to their league campaign and also reach the semi-finals of the Scottish League Cup.
