Check if you have a spring on the slave cylinder and the clutch fork

Also try adjusting the free play at the pedal. There is a bit you can adjust down there. It is a really common problem.

Dont replace it, look at if there is a spring attached to the slave cylinder and fork if there isnt then put one or replace d spring. And yes check the play on the actual pedal.
