My first thought is there's still air in the clutch hydraulic system and you need to bleed it more. Did you bench-bleed the clutch master cylinder? If not, that usually means it's gonna take a lot of fluid pumping through before you get all the air out.

Air in the clutch usually results in the slave cylinder not moving through it's proper stroke. Have someone in the drivers seat to press the clutch pedal down. The outer part of the fork should move about 10mm. If it moves less, then after pumping a couple times then it moves 10mm, that's air in the system.

Another possibility is the clutch disk is backwards. The hub of the clutch disk sticks out further from one side, and if it's in backwards it won't disengage completely.

Another possibility is the throw-out fork is cracked, or it isn't sitting properly on that little ball that acts as a pivot.

BTW, the clutch is not disengaging. You press down the pedal to disengage, & lift up the pedal to engage.
