Liam Payne's solo debut opens at No.3 in the midweeks

After Harry Styles’ chart triumph last week, Liam Payne becomes the final member of One Direction to release his debut single.

And if Strip That Down (feat. Quavo) charts in the Top 10, it will complete a clean sweep of 1D Top 10 solo debuts. It’s currently at No.3 on 19,674 sales. Lucas Fonsi & Daddy Yankee look set to continue at No.1 with Despacito (43,956 sales), with DJ Khaled’s I’m The One tucked behind it at No.2 on 19,999 sales. Shawn Mendes’ There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back (15,778) continues at No.4, while Clean Bandit and Zara Larsson complete the Top 5 with Symphony (15,136 sales).

In the albums chart, Ed Sheeran is seeking a quick return to business as usual, with ÷ (14,763 sales) reclaiming top spot from Harry Styles’ self-titled debut (11,383 sales). Between them at No.2 are Linkin Park with One More Light (12,327 sales). Rag’N’Bone Man’s Human (9,354 sales) is at No.4 and Erasure’s new entry World Be Gone (8,153 sales) completes the Top 5.
