Default Big banana sucker

In a few days a friend is going to remove a banana sucker with some size, about 2 meters high, what would be the procedure with a plant of this size?

I have to plant it right away or I should remove the leaves, I see that some people cut the stem, this would be necessary?

I do not have much experience, I appreciate any advice.

Just replant as soon as possible, water in well, and try not to damage the roots. Kept the roots moist if replanting is delayed a few days. Banana plant are tough.

There are some very detailed videos just for this procedure on Youtube.
Just pick and choose what applies to you.
Key words " transplant banana, splitting banana, planting banana.
