Releasing the clutch pedal in reverse sometimes causes a scraping noise

Hello from a Russian in Germany! I recently got my license and my first cheap and fun car, Peugeot 207cc, 2010 with manual transmission. The car has around 128 000 km, and had an inspection done when I bought it from the dealer. There was no problems with transmission found, but I am noticing a strange thing happen sometimes. Sometimes, when I switch to reverse and start releasing the clutch pedal instead of feeling the bite point I hear a strange scraping sound somewhere from the front of the car and it doesn't move or shake at all. If I then press the pedal down, give car a 5 sec break and bring it up again, it goes just fine. Friends told me it can be a synchroniser, but the gear switching is fine, and it doesn't happen on a switch, its specifically happens when I lift the clutch and it happens rarely so I cannot reproduce it. I would appreciate an advice and help with that issue, because its strange that it was not found in the inspection before but does sometimes happen when I park.

Well, pray that just needs a clutch. The clutch and/or flywheel could be worn making that noise. If it's not that it would be internal to the transmission which would cost a fortune to repair
