Looks like a Fruitless Mulberry. They'll make a lot of shade, but are some of the ugliest trees ever made.
The leaf shape makes me think you’re probably right. The leaves will probably round out as it matures (if you keep it). Fruit or not, if you can pay close attention to pruning it’s a fast growing tree that is hardy enough. The wood gives a sweet aroma and is good for smoking poultry and probably pork, but takes a while to season.
I have several in three or four varieties and like them.
