Let's try to do the next thing:
1. Go to the page https://accounts.google.com/signin/recovery
2. Enter the email, then click "Next".
3. Instead of entering your password, click "Try another way"
4. Enter the phone number.
5. Choose the option "Send a code".
6. If you don't have access to the phone number, please choose the option "Try another way" and follow the on-screen instructions.

What happens, when you put the Try Another Way option?
Customer Reply
They send another verification code via 365 number
We seem to be going round in circles just send me a code through email or call

As I know, after you put the try another way option after it is asking you to get a code on your old phone, it has another option to try out.
Can you, please, try to do that?
