Scirocco Central

Hi all, I have a MY2011 Scirocco 1.4tsi CAVD with ~60k miles on it. Recently, I noticed some weird noise while setting off. I can hear it when the car is rolling, but at higher speeds it is unnoticeable. Noise is discontinuous, it is also present when I turn left at low speeds, almost stationary, I think it comes from the front of the car. I don't hear it always, but it keeps coming back. I jacked up the car, and checked every wheel for some bearing clearances (grabbed the wheel and moved it vertically) but i didn't feel any.

Here is a video of it:

Do You have any idea what it might be? Thanks for the help

Does it sound when you let off the throtle and when you step on it?

Yes it does. When I apply throttle just a little I can hear it too sometimes, but when i accelerate harder the sound is gone, or I can't hear it any more.
