Applying the AdS/CFT correspondence, we study the entanglement entropy in strongly coupled supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) plasma under the influence of a (constant) magnetic field
. We consider the entangling surface transverse and parallel to
, respectively. For both cases, it is shown that the inclusion of
enhances the entanglement entropy. Moreover, we observe that in this case the entanglement entropy does not exhibit a transition due to
