Section of team at Euros not getting paid (7)
I believe the answer is:
amateur
'paid' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'section of team at euros not' is the wordplay.
'section of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'AMATEUR' can be found hidden inside 'team at euros not'.
'getting' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for amateur that I've seen before include "Lay person" , "Unpaid (sportsman}" , "Unpaid practitioner" , "Unpaid or unskilled" , "Lover" .)
