Thorniley is on a season-long loan at Oxford and has made 23 appearances since his move at the start of August. The 25-year-old has featured in 19 of this season's 25 League One games.
Cheshire-born Thorniley, signed from Sheffield Wednesday two years ago, will be out of contract at Blackpool this summer, though the club have the option to extend his deal by a further 12 months.
Oxford boss Karl Robinson has criticised Brannagan's agent for bypassing him in an attempt to force a move through.
