 Earlier you said:

 > My website is live and contain mayn plugins and functionalities.

 So, I suspect that one of the **other plugins** you have on your site is
 overriding your use of `add_filter( 'wp_sitemaps_enabled',
 '__return_false' )`.  The most likely candidate for such a plugin is an
 SEO plugin...which is why I asked whether you have an SEO plugin
 installed.

 I'll also note that I cannot replicate the behavior you describe on a
 fresh WP site with the TwentyTwentyThree theme and no other plugins than
 one that hooks `wp_sitemaps_enabled` on (or before) the `init` action.

 Can you verify that you're not hooking `wp_sitemaps_enabled` **after** the
 `init` action?

 In order to determine whether there really is a bug in WP core, we need
 more information from you, including (but perhaps not limited to):

 1. what plugins you have active on your site
 2. **when** you are hooking `wp_sitemaps_enabled`
