The new growth is of the trifoliate rootstock and should be removed so that the plant's energy is channeled towards the cultivar.

cut it at the trunk base, smooth and with a sharp knife...
Simple

If you want to try a multigrafted tree as Joe said, you could try it on the next sprout. If you do not want to, you need to remove any growth below the graft line as soon as it emerges. When it first emerges you can rub it off with your finger.
