Hello! Need help identifying what the problem could be. It has a new leaf growing so I’m not sure if I should cut it off or just leave it. I appreciate any advice/comments 😊 the other little leaf seems to be perfectly fine!

It’s very common for alocasias to drop a leaf as a new one comes in. I’d leave it for now since it’s still 90% green
