Try to pump the clutch see if ant better if it is then you have air in the system and needs to be bled out if not need a clutch.

You will have air in the hydraulic system, as the last poster recommended, bleed the system and inspect for signs of fluid leak, not sure if this model has a concentric slave, if so if it is leaking the transmission will have to be removed to replace the unit.
