Generally speaking, if it makes a noise when you push the clutch down it's a clutch problem (usually the release bearing), if it's noisy when the clutch is up it's a gearbox problem.

The noise you hear is the clutch release bearing - as the name suggests it compresses a revolving spring disc when the clutch pedal is down. It will get worse, and the only cure is to have a new one fitted - and this should include a new clutch friction and pressure plate, together with a new release bearing.
