Check there is'nt a spring broken and check for play in the steering. If it was just the wobbling then i'd make sure the wheels are balanced properly but the knocking could be something else.

Could be a driveshaft, drop link, cv joint... a number of things. Id suggest you dont drive the car until you get it properly looked at otherwise you risk further damaging the car or losing a wheel. Driving it could ultimately put your life as risk.

this type of corsa suffers with the near side rack bush becoming loose making the ram "float "up and down which in turn makes the steering knock and also vague
