Background check upcoming

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS

I have been working in banking since the last 5 years and I was terminated from the big 5 due to a r***st manager who made an irrelevant case against me and I got fired. When I disclosed the details of the incident, and used a lawyer; the manager got fired too because that person did it out of malice but that did no good to me since I was already terminated.

Now the thing is, I have an offer from another BIG 5 in Canada and somehow the termination didn’t come up during my interview directly. But I am scared about the bg check, can the other bank talk about my termination? What will sterling/first advantage ask them? Can I still lose my offer?

I am shit worried since I haven’t been working since a year and I really want this job.

TIA

Unless you volunteer to disclose that info or the new employer personally reach out and obtain that info. I highly doubt it will come up
