Sevilla plan to give the Scottish striker every chance to come good, treating him as a long-term project rather than an immediate must-score signing.
Ure was the club's biggest outlay of the summer, arriving from Swedish side IK Sirius for €6.5 million plus a further €2.5 million in add-ons, and his form in La Liga has already earned him a first call-up to Scotland's senior squad, for Nations League fixtures against Slovenia, home and away, Switzerland and North Macedonia. The hope in Seville is that a first international taste will help lift the pressure ahead of his first goal of the season.
Ure barely had time to unpack before making an impact. He won the penalty that settled Sevilla's opening-day win over Rayo Vallecano almost straight off the plane, and a week later at San Mamés his pressure on Unai Simón forced the move that put Sevilla ahead.
Against Atlético Madrid he set up Miguel Sierra despite receiving little support from team-mates. Since then, though, his form has dipped, and Stassin has overtaken him in the pecking order for a starting place.
His adjustment period mirrors what happened when he first arrived at Sirius, where his first goal did not come until his fifth appearance, even though he had started every game up to that point.
At Sevilla he has gone seven matches without scoring, but with fewer minutes on the pitch than during that slow start in Sweden. Sevilla's current situation gives the club no reason to rush him, and there is no urgency to see an immediate return on the investment.
