    I thought it might be acer negundo, the box elder, aka ash leaved maple, though the leaves appear quite long. Native to America. Used as a park tree in Europe. As a check: Louisiana Plant ID | Acer negundo (boxelder)
    Regards

    Should I take a specific photo of this tree/leaf which might clarify?

    If you haven't done so, you could check that link. Young leaves are more irregular and your pic suggests a longer leaf and more symmetry. Also: Box Elder, Acer negundo L.. Do most of the leaves have 'smooth' outlines? If so, it's likely NOT box elder.
    Regards

    Yes, Acer negundo. (Unfortunately it is not just a park tree in Europe, but an invasive weed...)
