Strange knocking sound front right break?

So recently iv been hearing a strange clukting knocking types of sound as i speed up it speeds up. When i gently tap the break it stops. I took the car to a local shop an had them check my brake everything was road safe. He did say that that in side the brake harness the thin metal clamp that i think hold the pads together broke in the middle. Having said that its just hard to belive that it can make that much noise. I hope I explained my issue please let me know what you think. Happy new year congrats we made it!
