First, remove the Event Trigger component, then add a new script that implements the IPointerEnterHandler interface. This interface forces you to implement OnPointerEnter. You can do whatever you want inside that method, you can call a method in the same script or a method in another script. If the method is in another script just add a member to set that reference in the inspector or find that however you want.

Something like this should work:

 sing UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.EventSystems;
 
 public class GameController : MonoBehaviour, IPointerEnterHandler {
 
     [SerializeField]
     OtherScript otherComponent; //set this in the inspector
 
     void PrivateMethod() {
         //do something
     }
 
     void OnPointerEnter() {
         PrivateMethod();
         otherComponent.AnyPublicMethod();
     }
 }

The event system will detect when the pointer enters the game object and will call OnPointerEnter on any script that implements it.

If you want to keep the EventTrigger to add events dynamically at runtime it gets a litter more complex, so if this works for you just do it this way.

And i have no idea to adapt your code :(
