I've had a game installed on a second SSD which I have just replaced with a newer model. Prior to replacing the SSD I have uninstalled the game in question and have also properly unmounted the SSD.

Problem now is that I can't reinstall (or install for that matter) the game again. Steam is telling me that I'd need 0 MB free disk space which leads me to believe that Steam's under the impression it's probably already installed.

I have already uninstalled Steam completely and have also deleted /.local/share/Steam/ and anything else I could find

Any other game I can install just fine, just not the one I had installed on the old SSD.

Any idea how to fix this?
