I think the leaf sheath is just having difficulty splitting. You could try to peel it off very gently. Also yes always repot when you get a new plant! You gotta check out the root situation

I wouldn’t recommend repotting right away unless you’re worried about pests! It’s always good to give the plant some time to adjust to its new environment before stressing it out by repotting.
