Not to jump into conclusions but sounds identical to the problem I recently had, ended up being a broken pivot behind the Y fork in the tranny. Basically the y fork that holds the throughout bearing is activated my the slave but behind is also helped by a spring with works off this pivot. Mine broke off the head and I lost all clutch feel yet everything was ok just like you mentioned. If I start the car in gear no problem I can power shift my way … well that could be it but maybe not. ---

sounds like you just need to bleed your clutch. ---

you gotta bleed the clutch, you have air in the lines. If you want (if the car is capable) bring the car to my shop and I can diagnose it for you free of charge. ---
