Fig Plant Suckers coming between Main trunk & Branches

Hello,

I am newbie in fig plantation. I have 2 fig trees in container since last year. I have started 1 new tree from the cuttings and planted in soil.. Its about 6 months since I grow it. Recently the plant started to go very tall.. about 8 feet already.

Now I notice there are some suckers growing between Main trunk & Branches, similar to Tomato Plants !

Can some1 please advise me whether I shall leave them intact or remove them ?? By the way I tried to remove one, very easily removed !

Also Can some1 help me identify fig variety of my plant, please see the attached pics

Thank you beforehand.

No pics attached

remove suckers so energy will go to the main trunk... unless you want to make a new plant out of it.
