Sean Steur speaks about lack of minutes with Matthias Jaissle at Newcastle United

Steur says he's not worried about reduced playing time under Jaissle, trusting the process at Newcastle after a bright start to the season.

Sean Steur has dismissed concerns about his lack of minutes at Newcastle United in recent weeks, insisting he remains calm and confident in his situation.

The 18-year-old midfielder, who joined from Ajax for €23.5m in the summer, started Newcastle's season as a regular fixture, playing 56 minutes against Liverpool, 71 against Leeds, and 66 against Hull. However, his game time has become sporadic since the first international break, with appearances of five minutes against Crystal Palace, 26 against Everton, and nine in the EFL Cup against Millwall.

Steur's recent 74-minute outing in Newcastle's 1-1 draw with Fulham marked his longest league appearance since mid-September. Speaking about his situation, the youngster said: "Sometimes that you play a little less just belongs to the process, belongs to the club you are in."

He added that he remains focused on making the most of his opportunities when they come, saying "just trust in yourself and your opportunity will come anyway."
