Undefined variable for hidden input after registration - Laravel - php

Question

I have this method of trying to get their email to resend verification link if they didnt receive the first time. The problem is i dont want to let them login without verification because this database is connected with a game server and i dont want them to log in without verification. I tried to store the email so the resend button resends it to that email the verification link but after i register and when its trying to redirect me to the verify.blade i get.
Undefinded variable: user
And its pointing to the hidden input which i will show below.
This is my registration function which works fine and registers the user in the database:
protected function create(array $data)
{
$user = Account::create([
'login' => $data['login'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'password' => bcrypt($data['password']),
'verifyToken'=> Str::random(40),
'active' => (env('CONFIRM_EMAIL', true)) ? 0 : 1
]);
$thisUser = Account::findOrFail($user->id);
if(env('CONFIRM_EMAIL') == true){
$this->sendEmail($thisUser);
}
return $user;
}
This is the function that redirects or logins the user depending if i have set to True the email verification:
public function register(Request $request)
{
$this->validator($request->all())->validate();
event(new Registered($user = $this->create($request->all())));
if(env('CONFIRM_EMAIL') == false){
$this->guard()->login($user);
}else{
return redirect(route('verifyEmail'));
}
if ($response = $this->registered($request, $user)) {
return $response;
}
return $request->wantsJson()
? new Response('', 201)
: redirect($this->redirectPath());
}
and this is the resend function and html code with the hidden input that points the error to the value="$user->email":
protected function resend(Request $request)
{
$user = Account::where('email', $request->email)->first();
if($user){
$user->verifyToken = Str::random(40);
$user->save();
$this->sendEmail($user);
return back()->with('user',$user)->with('success', 'A link has been sent to your email');
}
}
<form action=" {!! route('resendEmail') !!}" method="POST">
#csrf
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="{{ $user->email }}">
<button class="btn btn-default db" type="submit" value="Submit">Resend Verification Link</button>
</form>
This is the route for verifyemail which i dont know how to pass the email parameter:
return redirect(route('verifyEmail'));
