ISA transfer advice needed

I have two old ISAs earning next to nothing in interest and also want to start a new one this financial year (before Apr 6th 2024)
I have read loads of threads and other savings advice but can't seem to find (or perhaps can't understand) what I need to know
If I use up this years allowance of 20k starting a new ISA, can I transfer into the same new ISA my old ISAs on top of the 20k?
Or do I need to start a separate one for the transfers?
Or as they are old ISAs, can I create a new ISA just for them anyway?
Thank you for any advice anyone can give

You can choose between any of those options and more, but if you wish to get previous year money into one or more new ISAs then you need to ensure that the new ones accept transfers in (not all do).0

E.g. Your new ISA is easy access and you wanted to lock in for a year or more for a higher rate with the old ones or vice versa. But it has nothing to do with the fact that the old ones are, well, old
