De Gea's market value is determined by his release clause, which I believe was set at about £54M a couple of years ago.

That release clause was reportedly only available for Real Madrid until like June 15th 2016. So, even if there was one, it won't exist anymore.

That's news to me, and I hope that you are right.
£54M seemed like an astronomical figure a couple of year ago, but this window it seems like a give away.

In this market, the best GK in the World should be £90M

Yes, it's in this article and was mentioned last summer as well:
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/.../manchester-united-want-world-record-10347935

A possible problem is that De Gea will only have 2 years left on his contract come next summer, even if we take the option to extend it by a year. So, the Madrid tapping up process may well happen again. To avoid this, we really need De Gea to sign a new long term contract soon.
