Noise right front wheel

2010 R56 Base. Hoping someone may have experienced this problem before. I just noticed yesterday when applying the brakes a clicking or thumping noise comes from the right front tire area. I only have 67,000 miles on it. This only happens when applying the brakes and have not noticed any other issues.

Pull the wheel and check your pads. You may be due (overdue?) for some new ones.

I just put new pads not long ago, but was going to pull the wheel anyway to check. I used Akebono Brake pads. Thanks
