Find out where it is leaking and replace the defective part. Could be a broken or loose fitting or line, bad master cylinder, bad slave cylinder. Try to find where it is leaking first.

Most likely it is the clutch master cylinder. It is a very common problem. You can check this buy looking around the clutch pedal area inside the car around the CMC. Usually the seal gives and it leaks fluid right there.. If it's leaking you will see it..

I've seen them leak enough to ruin carpet and good set of floor mats.

Do some searching for ''clutch master cylinder''

There's a bunch of topics.

and make sure when you find and fix the problem you bleed the clutch line so there isnt any air in it.
