Create communication site in private group (MS Teams team)

Question

I want to create a communication site within the private group of a Teams team. When I create a new site it only allows me to create team sites, not communication sites.

Do I have to create a totally new site (with URL etc.) and link to it in Teams or what else can I do?
Greetings

Yes, you need to create a new site. Communication sites are not backed by a Microsoft 365 Group thus cannot host a Microsoft Team. What you can do is create the Comm site and then use the webpage tab in Teams to allow users to navigate to it within the Teams client.
