Prolongation de la ligne 1 construite durant l’été, l’arrêt Camp des Loges connaissait une fréquentation démesurée : quand tout l’effectif montait à bord du métro, les odeurs de transpiration devenaient si gênantes que les clochards tiraient la sonnette d’alarme. En dépit de l’affluence, personne - hormis Lugano - n’aurait eu l’idée d’utiliser la place réservée aux handicapés ou le banc aménagé à l’arrière de chaque wagon. Ce métro avait de particulier que ses usagers préféraient rester debout.

A la sirène, les étrangers empruntaient la sortie de droite, celle menant au bureau de la direction, avant de réclamer un plan du quartier ou un contrat. A gauche, l’arrêt débouchait sur la salle de repos. C’est ici que nous refaisions le monde à voix haute pour couvrir le son des accordéonistes naviguant entre les tables, parfois sur, souvent saouls. Des touristes écoutaient les propos assurés de footballeurs soudés par la certitude de la victoire finale, l’unique issue, le terminus. Rien, en ce début de saison, ne pouvait nous faire douter, pas même le passage de Leonardo.

“Vous avez vos billets? demanda-t-il à deux rédactrices d’un blog mêlant ballon et bières, l’une brune, l’autre moins.

- Euh… Non.

- Elles ont surtout des seins. Soyez cool!

- Très bien. Je vais verbaliser Kohler, alors.’’

Alors que Leonardo se préparait à sortir son carnet, Zlatan, mon voisin, lança un regard suffisamment persuasif pour lui intimer l’ordre de partir. Ibra aussi venait quelquefois en métro : seul, via sa propre ligne financée par des entreprises suédoises voulant pénétrer le marché qatari. De temps en temps, il montait à bord d’un hélicoptère pour effectuer le trajet séparant son appartement de l’arrêt. Le plus souvent, il prenait la voiture et se laissait conduire par son assistant-traducteur, un homme de confiance. Durant le voyage, il écoutait la radio ou terminait ses corn-flakes dans la cuisine de la limousine. Des Rice Krispies. Zlatan avait des goûts simples.

Un sans-papiers vendait des fruits - melons, litchis, pastèques, autant de choses dont j’ignorais l’existence avant d’habiter Paris - près du nouveau distributeur de Mars. Rapidement, il vendit des Mars.

“Vous trouvez pas que j’ai grossi? questionna Sirigu, entamant sa quatrième barre.

- Tu fais du combien? demanda Sissoko

- 200, 250 par mois.

- Ouais, ça devient lourd à porter, tout cet argent. Tu as pensé à donner à une association caritative? Mon conseiller financier prétend que c’est déductible d’impôt.

- Kevin? Tu acceptes les chèques?’’

J’avais mis à contribution ces deux mois de chômage pour apprendre l’Italien afin de comprendre les discussions des titulaires, dont la plupart parlaient un mélange d’argot milanais et de grossièreté berlusconienne. Lors du stage du PSG en Amérique du nord, en juillet, j’avais levé le camp et découvert New-York. M’arrêtant à une boutique pour acheter le timbre de ma carte postale, j’avais rencontré une émigrée piémontaise qui m’enseigna les rudiments de sa langue. Elle n’était pas le grand amour, l’unique, celui sans format JPEG, mais les quelques jours passés dans ses bras m’avaient permis d’oublier ce mois sinistre passé à Moulins.

”Tu te souviens de cette fille, Pocho ? Elle était venue nous voir au Sofitel.”

Pocho était le surnom de Lavezzi.

”Laquelle ?

- Celle avec les cheveux longs.

- Laquelle ?

- Tu l’avais invitée dans ta chambre. Puis la femme de ménage avait frappé à ta porte, alertée par le bruit. Et elle était restée, elle aussi.

- Ah, Alessandra? Si!”

Avec trois de ses doigts, il mima une pénétration, puis une double, ajoutant mon pouce au tableau. Leonardo parti, mes coéquipiers retrouvaient leur naturel. Soulevant son tee-shirt, Sissoko montra son bronzage ventral à l’une des deux blogueuses. Il fut rapidement gêné de la présence d’une bouée graisseuse à hauteur du nombril.

“Tu devrais arrêter de manger des cochonneries. Et faire du sport , lui conseilla Vanessa.

- T’es dure. J’ai quand même débloqué toutes les épreuves à Mario et Sonic aux Jeux Olympiques.

- Du vrai sport.

- Du football?

- Momo…

- Quoi, putain? Du rugby?

- C’est important de s’entretenir, déclara Nene. Faudra que je te prête ma cassette : 101 cours de yoga pour obtenir un ventre plat, par Cindy Crawford.

- C’est efficace?

- Oui. Pour faire le premier exercice, j’ai dû poser ma montre. J’ai immédiatement perdu six kilos.”

Hoarau s’installa à table, un bol de M&M’S dans les mains. Il lança une vanne inaudible qui fit malgré tout rire Lavezzi. Dans la foulée, l’Argentin accorda à l’une de ses admiratrices un baisemain puis l’embrassa sur la bouche, lui montra ses muscles et lui demanda son prénom - dans cet ordre. Mon coéquipier argentin était imprévisible. Il fallait l’accepter dans toute sa démesure. Pour l’intégrer, j’avais organisé une petite visite des lieux incontournables de Paris en commençant par le plus connu, du moins des footballeurs : le Zaman café. Le vigile ne me connaissant pas, j’avais laissé le groupe découvrir l’endroit plus en profondeur. Place du Champ-de-Mars, Lavezzi se trouva une réplique de la Tour Eiffel. Le décor plut beaucoup à Zlatan, si bien qu’il s’acheta le dernier étage de l’édifice, le transformant en résidence secondaire. Je servais de guide, ne haussant le ton que pour refuser leurs pourboires.

Sur le chemin, Lavezzi s’arrêta dans une boutique pour se faire un nouveau tatouage. Il adorait tellement admirer les siens qu’il s’était tatoué sur son avant-bras gauche une miniature de son visage contemplant un autre tatouage, placé un peu plus haut. Nicolas Anelka regarda d’un peu plus près un dragon cracheur de feu. ”Je me suis fait le même en Chine” , soupira l’attaquant, croisé à New-York dans la pénombre de PSG-Chelsea, au comptoir d’un bar. Passager clandestin de l’avion du retour, il traînait désormais au Camp des Loges entre deux rencontres du championnat chinois. Nous n’avions rien en commun mais j’appréciais l’évocation de chacun de ses souvenirs, même légèrement romancés.

‘’Les vibrations sont bonnes, ici. Un peu comme quand j’ai gagné la Coupe du monde, en 98.’’

Peu à peu, ma famille et mes amis s’effaçaient au profit d’hommes éphémères. Ma mère m’avait toujours expliqué l’échec de mon frère au PSG par une blessure ; ce mensonge me conduisait aujourd’hui à ne plus l’écouter. Elle voulait me voir revenir. Elle disait que je perdais mon temps, ici. Elle avait peur que je souffre. Medhi vivait de débrouilles aux quatre coins de la France sans se donner la peine de m’informer. Pierre doutait de moi. Fréquenter ces inconnus découlait d’une certaine logique. Au moins, ils croyaient en quelque chose.

”Regardez”, dit Pocho.

Il nous montra sa boule de verre. Elle était un peu particulière. Lorsqu’on retournait la Tour Eiffel, de la pluie tombait plutôt que de la neige. Lavezzi ne s’en séparait plus. Il la secoua puis se tourna vers la fenêtre. Du ciel se dégageait un tapis de nuages que le soleil traversait sans peine.

“Forza Paris! lança-t-il, le bras levé.

- Au PSG! fit Sirigu.

- A nous!

- Oui, à nous!”
