Help! Mod is permanently in the game and won't go away no matter how many times I delete it

So, I’m at my wits end here. I have the Steam Version of the game, I had this mod (Mods Single - Age of Empires) everytime I fire the game up, go to the mod tab, its stuck with this infinite loading circle on the left and says its downloading. the descriptions are blank and aside from the “Enable” and “Disable” buttons (which do nothing) I can’t do a thing with this mod. I deleted it and its contents multiple times from my PC but everytime I fire the game up, its like its constantly downloading files into my game nonstop as I cannot get rid of this mod, even after unsubscribing and deleting the files, it keeps adding them back. I also tried to verify the game files on steam and nothing is working.

Also, idk if this is helpful or not, I can indeed download and use other mods, but this one is in a state of limbo. Please someone help.

Here is a picture of my situation:
