We present a hybridized discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for stationary linearized incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations. At the heart of the paper is the introduction of an HDG flux of the dual saddle-point form of the MHD equations that facilitates the hybridization of discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. We carry out the $\textit{a priori}$ error estimates for the proposed HDG method on simplicial meshes in both two- and three-dimensions. The analysis provides optimal convergence for the fluid velocity and the magnetic variables, and quasi-optimal convergence for the remaining quantities. Numerical examples are presented to verify the theoretical findings.
