Recover a very old Game Center account

I’m trying to log into game center with a very old Game Center account that I’ve had for years. When I try to log in, it sends a verification email to my email, which has been deactivated by yahoo. Is my account lost forever or is there any another way to log into the account. Or have my account linked to a different email?

 Do you want to change your Apple ID email address on your Yahoo Apple ID so you retain access to your data and prior purchases? Note the restrictions in the article.

Make sure you turn of Find My Phone before signing out of the old ID. Once signed out and Find My Phone is off, then sign in with the new ID, then turn Find My Phone back on.

This is my third iPhone and each has been hacked. My first two I kept losing access to my Apple ID and would create new one until I could not lose create anymore on those devices. Now this device is on my third Apple ID and I just want my data and info from the other apple ids merged.

I think I have lost all my info for those apple IDs and I have spoke to support in chat, email, and mostly by phone. Let me know if you find a solution please and I will do the same
