Sounds like a new clutch needed to me.
To confirm its not the cable, get someone to sit in the car and press the clutch down repeatedly whilst you watch the arm on top of the box. If its moving, the cables fine. What you can do is get someone to hold the pedal down then use a prybar to see if you can get the clutch arm to move any more. If it happily moves further, the cable may be out of adjustment in which case, you need to press the pedal right down and slip your foot off the side so the pedal springs back up. Do this a few times and it should adjust. Theres no manual adjustment on there.
Convinced its the clutch its self though. Cables never really fail like that. They just snap!
