"Tommy Wright is gaining valuable experience down at Brentford and he has scored a couple of goals as well," the Foxes boss told the club's official website.
"It is a good learning process for him, the second division is a physical league and he will probably learn more there than in our reserves. That is the thinking behind it.
"But we are not looking to sell him. He is part of our future plans and he is just gaining more valuable experience."
