[Tex/LaTex] How to put citations in footnote using square bracket style

biblatexfootnotes

I would like the simple command \cite produces an entry in the bibliography (at the end of the doc) and in the footnote, using the format:

bla bla bla~\cite{myref} bla bla.

whose result is:

bla bla bla [1] bla bla.

[1] author, journal, year

I have found this : Biblatex cite with footnote only once, with use of brackets

[edit]: It is almost what I need, but without the superscript and with less information in the footnote (only author, journal, year, volume, page). But I have no idea how to do that.

[edit2]: I cannot find a solution. As I should send my thesis very soon, I am asking for help, once again. Many thanks.

Thanks for your help!
