If the charging cable is loose (it wiggles around) when plugged in, there is likely damage to the charging port of the phone.
Depending on the way it was built the charging port (inside the phone) will be on a cable or soldered to the main motherboard. Judging by your model and some search results, yours is soldered on to the board. I would call around to local shops (with good online reputation) and see if anyone there offers soldering replacements for charging ports. It shouldn't cost more than $70. $50-60 is the normal range.

Thank you very much, Mr. Dworning. So there´s no chance that I can fix it myself?
You can fix anything yourself, with the right tools and know how. But unless you have experience with soldering on a SMD level (microsoldering) I wouldn't recommend it as a first time attempt.
Fair enough....
My phone is a Galaxy s7, and it was never loose until just now. It wiggles aroundand the slightest touch can remove it. What can I do, other than going somewhere to fix it?
