BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Standard Liege have asked their former player and Belgian international Marouane Fellaini to invest money and help ensure the survival of the club as it faces being relegated to the amateur ranks, local media reported on Wednesday.

Fellaini, who began his career at the Belgian club before moving to the Premier League and now China, is being asked to follow former Standard team mate Axel Witsel in a group of investors seeking to buy the club's stadium and then rent it back to them, thereby raising the cash they need to stay afloat.
