Slight clicking sound from front-left at low speed

Hi,
I have a 6-speed 2009 9-3 SportCombi with 68K miles. For the last few days, I've noticed a very slight "clicking" sound coming from the front-left side, i think it's around the wheel / tire area when accelerating from a stop. The sound gets quicker but not louder as I accelerate until around 25-30 mph, where I can hear it any longer due to road noise. It doesn't happen at idle, or at idle when giving it gas - only when the car is moving forward. Any idea what could be causing this? When I was in the shop for service a couple of months ago, the shop said the my front-left ball joint was a little loose. Could this be causing it?
It's a very slight sound that I can hardly hear. I'm just wondering it's something to worry about. The car runs fine otherwise.
Thanks,
Mike.
