Antonio,
On sacrifice branches that come out low like that, you can leave foliage that doesn't interfere with the foliage that you want to develop. The sacrifice leader requires that you remove all foliage except at the tip so that it doesn't shade out the developing branches.

Remember that when you develop the tree you will need to reduce to two buds per branch end.

Best of luck,
John
