A wheel drive system for ground movement of an aircraft includes a motor system and a clutch system. The motor system, which is borne by an unsuspended part of a landing gear strut of the aircraft, includes an electric motor and a reduction gearing system. The clutch system, which connects an output shaft of the electric motor to a wheel of the aircraft via the reduction gearing system, includes a dog-clutch and a translational movement system. The dog-clutch includes a drive part, which is secured to the motor system, and a receiving part, which secures to a rim of the wheel. The translational movement system moves the drive part along an axis of an axle crossbeam of the landing gear strut into an engaged position, in which the drive part collaborates with the receiving part, and a disengaged position, in which the drive part is separated from the receiving part.
