Ambro heir of San Paolo?

Flamini's arrival probably means that Ambro will become a reserve player. Allthough he will make his fair share of games when either Flamini, Gatusso or even Pirlo and seedorf will be injured, suspended or etc.
This is most probably scenario but there could be an alternative...

I think we all agree we need some new defenders as well maybe it's a wacked idea but I think Ambro has the right profile to partner up with Nesta in the heart of our defence. He has practically everything what makes a good CD. Lots of defensive midfielders are frequently used as a central defender especially when they are getting a bit older so then can use their experience.
Besides some sources claim he shoud be the heir of Maldini captain position so why not make him the complete heir?
I'dd give it a try in preseason and who knows what might happen.

What do you guys think?
