Unhappy MK5 revs goes up but speed is not changing

Hello,

My fiesta started to play up. When I go on 2, 3 or 4 gear at above 2.5K rpm then I quickly accelerate, revs goes up but speed is not changing. Feels like clutch hasn't been released until the end.

To me it sounds like clutch disk worn out but I'm not sure.

What do you think it could be?

Thanks for you help.
