Default Metal Sound and slight wheel movement

I looked at a 93 hatch today
and over bumps there is a slight metal sound from the pass. side
So when I was under the car
Everything looks fine
But when I pull on the top of the wheel (hard)
The wheel moves a little bit

Any suggestions as to what could cause this?
and where to get another :D?

Thank you.

I know how to fix alot of things on car seeing as how I have driven VW for 5 years

Sounds like a fault wheel bearing to me. Jack up the front of your car and remove the wheel the sound is coming from. Turn the rotor by hand. If it feels rough/grindy its probably your wheel bearing.

I didn't grind when driving tho
Just over bumps it made the sound

How bad is a wheel bearing?
