If you have pressure on the pedal, then the clutch plate is rusted to the flywheel. If you drive it, it will probably eventually break free.

No pressure at all. Rolls free
No pedal pressure? Then your clutch master or slave cylinder is shot.
If the plate is not making contact with the flywheel and pressure plate, then the springs in the pressure plate are shot or the pressure plate is rusted through.
I've never heard of a pressure plate failing in the disengaged position. Springs force it to engage if there is no input(pressure).
