When I push the clutch pedal fully it tends to stick on the floor, it doesn't stick actually, just seems to need slightly more force to come up in the first inch of travel (from bottom). The hydraulics have been replaced within the last three years. I guess it's the clutch itself and it's lubrication. The clutch has 60k miles on the discs and 90k miles on the plates/flywheel.

Again, it's not a big issue, the clutch fully works but I'm asking if I should replace it before any damage can result.

Thanks!

I know you said you replaced the hydraulics in the last 3 years but that sounds like a clutch master cylinder going bad. Check the fluid level. It isn't so much the years but the type of driving you do(ie. if you do lots of stop and go city driving you could wear one out within a few years).
 
Thanks for the hint. I'm pretty sure that the clutch master is ok. Fluid level is ok, no leaks at the seals (footwell). It's a bit dependant on temperature. It gets more pronounced when the car is hot.
