I send back my post because i'm not sur it is sent...

Ok thanks all !

I haven't in control of clients so it's the real problem, i can't
install certificate on their smartphone ^^.

So according to you, if i create a CA with openssl, and create a
certification signing request (.csr) with a private key, and if i send
my csr to a trusted authority to sign it, i could use it in squid
without problem, then clients wouldn't have any warning ?
I would like to be sure to avoid every problem.
