Default Clutch pedal not returning

Recently acquired project V70 D5. Seemed to drive fine on journey home until I stopped at a set of lights. As the lights changed I tried to engage 1st and it wasn't happy, like the clutch wasn't fully disengaged. It wasn't as it turns out as once i had managed to get first the car was creeping forward with clutch pedal still fully depressed.

Had to pull clutch pedal up by hand then car behaved normally although I was careful not to hold the pedal down for any longer than absolutely necessary as I know that I'm losing hydraulic pressure somewhere.

I'm really hoping that it's an internal leak in the master cylinder rather than the concentric slave. Although this car was bought as a minor project to amuse myself I definitely hadn't planned on pulling the box out.

Thoughts/advice appreciated
George
