feel around with someone pressing on the clutch pedal, put it up in the air and take a listen under the car as well. you may have a bad throwout bearing, the clutch fork could be sitting crooked on the pivot ball, the cable could be getting old. or the noise could even be up under the dash where the quadrant is.

try removing the cover on the bell housing where the fork is, you MIGHT be albe to squeeze your hand in there and make sure everything is centered. also, you may niotice the clutch fors is not straight.... try to center it a bit
