Play store asking me to update third party library even after updating. Unable to upload app to play store

Question

I am using Appsflyer library in my project. Previously I was using version 5.0.0. Then I got this message when uploading a new version.

The developer of AppsFlyer SDK (com.appsflyer:af-android-sdk) has reported version 5.0.0 as outdated. You must upgrade to a newer version (5.1.0+) before you can publish a new release to production.

So I updated the version from 5.0.0 to 6.5.4. But I still get this message. I am unable to upload app to play store.

If you need any other information, please let me know through the comments section. I will update it here. Thank you all in advance.

Before posting this question I tried "invalidate cache / restart" option. It didn't work. But after reading the comment from Pierre, I cleaned the project and tried again. Surprisingly it worked. Thank you Pierre.
