Post Clutch went out need help with a rough diagnosing

Went to get in my 2000 Volvo c70 after work and saw a medium sized puddle of what smelt like break fluid under my car. I got in and pushed the clutch in and turned her over went to let up off the clutch and it didn't come back up.. so i have no clutch. Looked underneath my c70 and saw some leakage on the back of the tranny where it is closest to the ground and fire wall. what could be wrong with her? i have heard slave silender? any thoughts or some helpful suggestions would be great

Maybe the clutch master let go.
If it was the slave it would come out of the hole between the tranny and motor.

Well you can try to bleed it and see if you can get any pedal at all. Or when you manually try pumping it does it just shoot fluid out the bottom?
