contents A group is said to have the Magnus Property (MP) if whenever two elements have the same normal closure then they are conjugate or inverse-conjugate. We show that a profinite MP group $G$ is prosolvable and any quotient of it is again MP. As corollaries we obtain that the only prime divisors of $|G|$ are $2$, $3$, $5$ and $7$, and the second derived subgroup of $G$ is pronilpotent. We also show that the inverse limit of an inverse system of profinite MP groups is again MP. Finally when $G$ is finitely generated, we establish that $G$ must in fact be finite.
