You'll have to give us some more to work on! It could be many things.
Is there any fluid left in the clutch reservoir?
Did it go *BANG* ?
Did it fail instantly, or over a period of time?Richard

Have you looked to see if it’s a problem with the pedal itself, linkage off, something stuck in the mechanism, etc.
Did this suddenly happen? Or was the clutch showing signs of something different over the last while?
This might sound stupid but can you drive it. ie. put it into first gear start the engine drive away and work your way up through the gears, Warning do not try this unless you have done it before and are used to changing gear without using the clutch.

Clutch pedal
Clutch has no effect can put it in gear but when starting just takes off pedal seems to moves few inches before it actually feels like it’s engaging

Sounds like you may have a broken clutch pedal assembly.
I had a similar issue and the pedal assembly had a fracture in part of it, so when depressing the pedal the structure would deflect rather than work correctly.
You need to get a good look and see f you can see and cracks or breaks.
I had to get a second hand one from a breaker on Ebay as Land Rover had none in stock and no time frame for getting them in stock.
Good luck.
