Acer identification

Could anyone help me identify this acer - most of the acers  I’ve looked at online are 6/7 lobed but this is 9! It is green in spring, turning dark red during the summer & bright red before dropping in autumn. Hoping someone here might recognise it? 
Many thanks 😁

    I’d thought Trompenbourg too but the RHS Website says that it only has 7 lobes 🫤

    I've just been and counted, you're right. Mine has 7, sometimes 8, leaflets.

    All the Matsumurae Acers can have 7-9 lobed leaves.
    How can you lie there and think of England
