Is there any option to create search results page in modern team site?

That's exactly how we're doing it at the moment, just have a Search Centre which we link to either from the global nav, current nav or from a link on the page. It's obviously not the nicest solution as we're forcing a switch between modern and classic experiences, but if we need that type of search experience there's not much we can do.
At the moment it's an exercise in instructing the client to use the new modern O365 search experience, which I personally really like, or an exercise in managing the customer's expectation with regards to the experience switch.

I'm having a similar challenge. We just installed a SharePoint 2019 Standard On Prem configuration and the default search at the top isn't using the search center it's using an ugly search result page by default. I created a search center and it looks great and provides better search relevance but I can't for the life of me get that search center to be the default search at the top in my nav bar.
I'm thinking it comes down to the modern experience being so restrictive. Given that I cannot modify the master page or enable server publishing feature on modern pages. I would hate to have to add a link in the nav to the search center and have that inferior search sitting there. Any idea on how to replace that top search with the search center?- Nehal ShahJan 07, 2020Copper Contributor
Tim_C I have read somewhere that Microsoft is going to roll out modern search results template in Feb 2019.
