One wrote: 'King is back', with another adding: 'Love like this is amazing !!! The production is so good ! Such a bop 🔥'. (sic)

Following the release, Zayn took to social media to thank fans. He wrote: 'thanks for all the love!! without you, none of this is possible, can't tell you all how happy and grateful i am. peace and love.❤️'. (sic)

The new track arrives as Zayn has been teasing fans with clips of new music.

Taking to his Instagram page, which has over 50 million followers, the 30-year-old revealed earlier this week that 'Love Like This' would drop on Friday 21st July. After wiping his Instagram clear earlier in July, the singer posted a video of himself sitting on a motorcycle, revving the engine before the visor of his helmet snapped shut.
