Scrapping sound when I push clutch switching gears

My 1990 RX7 convertible has a scrapping sound when I push clutch in to shift gears. May scrape at certain points, not through full range when I push clutch. Time for new clutch or just need lubrication?

Thank you

Thank you for your insight. Will get my expert Mazda mechanic to examine right away. I love this car and decided not to sell it. It has 100K miles but is going strong. Transmission has been looked at every year without any problems but will examine closer. Wish I were a car mechanic!
