Norwich City signed MK Dons striker Aaron Wilbraham on 1st January 2011 for an undisclosed fee on an eighteen month contract. , He oined the club on loan to enable him to play the match versus Queens Park Rangers before making the deal permanent later that day. He indeed made his debut in the 1–0 victory over QPR.

Wilbraham started his career at Manchester City as a youngster but made his league debut with Stockport. He scored 36 times in 185 appearances before joining Hull City for £100,000 in the summer of 2004. Wilbraham had just one season with Hull, which included two goals in 20 games and a one-month loan spell at Oldham. A switch to the MK Dons followed in June 2005 and he has gone on to feature 202 times, finding the net on 57 occasions.

It is likely he will act as backup to City's leading scorer Grant Holt, who until now had been boss Paul Lambert's only recognised target man.

"Wherever I've been there's been two big target men to come in when one is injured or suspended as well as maybe both playing together," he added."I'm going to try and grab this chance with both hands, I had loads of friends texting me yesterday saying it was a great chance for me and I'm going to try and hang onto it."

Wilbraham scored his first goal for Norwich in their 3-2 win at Leicester on 8th March 2011. However he was injured in that match leaving him with just 13 appearances to his name for the 2010/11 season

In January 2012, Wilbraham was linked with a move to Suffolk rivals Ipswich, possibly along with Adam Drury or Andrew Crofts depending on which bulletin board one frequents. He finished the 2011/12 season with 15 appearances and 1 goal as Norwich finished 12th in the Premier League

On 17th May 2012, Wilbraham was one of five players whom Norwich announced would leave the club on 1st June as their contracts would not be renewed
