That is strange! Even in Microsoft Docs it is explained like this (08-12-2020). I do not know what happened, but something changed. Luckily the button is still there, it is just a little bit hidden.
You have to go into the site information from the gear icon:
From there click on view all site settings:
Nothing here but now hit the gear Icon and you are able to connect to a new office 365 group:
After this action you are able to connect a new office 365 group:
You can select the names and decide if the group needs to be private or public:
Add people to your group:

This is just a short example to overcome the first huddle of not finding the menu, but you will need to investigate if permissions etc. are still correct. From here you could continue and go for the full-blown site with a team connected to it.
Enjoy!
