1. A vehicle internal combustion engine arrangement comprising: an internal combustion reciprocating piston engine, and an exhaust line configured to collect exhaust gases from the engine and direct the exhaust gases toward an atmosphere outside the engine arrangement;a waste heat recovery system carrying a working fluid in a loop, in which the working fluid is successively compressed, heated in a heat exchanger by means of thermal energy of at least one engine fluid, and expanded in a first expander;a first compressor located in the exhaust line and mechanically connected to the first expander of the waste heat recovery system,wherein the exhaust line passes through the heat exchanger, and wherein the first compressor is disposed between the heat exchanger and an outlet of the exhaust line leading to the atmosphere. 2. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the first compressor is directly mechanically driven by the first expander of the waste heat recovery system. 3. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the first compressor is mechanically connected to the first expander of the waste heat recovery system through a mechanical transmission. 4. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the heat exchanger is located in the exhaust line and in that the first compressor is located downstream from the heat exchanger. 5. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the waste heat recovery system is of the Rankine type in which the working fluid is carried in a closed loop, the heat exchanger comprising a boiler, and in that the waste heat recovery system further comprises a condenser which is arranged between the first expander and a pump, the pump being capable of compressing the working fluid before it enters the boiler. 6. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the first compressor is of the centrifugal type. 7. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, comprising a turbocharger including: a second expander located in the exhaust line upstream from the heat exchanger; anda second compressor mechanically linked to the second expander and located in an air intake line. 8. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the first compressor is independent from any expander located in the exhaust line upstream from the heat exchanger. 9. The engine arrangement according to claim 1, comprising an exhaust after treatment system located in the exhaust line and including several units, at least one unit being located upstream from the heat exchanger. 10. The engine arrangement according to claim 9, wherein the units comprise a diesel particulate filter and/or a selective catalyst reduction device. 11. Vehicle comprising an engine arrangement according claim 1. 12. A vehicle internal combustion engine arrangement comprising: an internal combustion reciprocating piston engine, and a main exhaust line configured to collect exhaust gases from the engine and direct the exhaust gases toward an atmosphere outside the engine arrangement;a waste heat recovery system carrying a working fluid in a loop, in which the working fluid is successively compressed, heated in a heat exchanger located in the main exhaust line by means of thermal energy of the exhaust gases, and expanded in a first expander,a first compressor located in the main exhaust line and mechanically connected to the first expander of the waste heat recovery system,a turbocharger including: a second expander located in the main exhaust line upstream from the heat exchanger; anda second compressor mechanically linked to the second expander and located in an air intake line,wherein the main exhaust line passes through the heat exchanger, and wherein the first compressor is disposed between the heat exchanger and an outlet of the main exhaust line leading to the atmosphere. 13. A vehicle internal combustion engine arrangement comprising: an internal combustion reciprocating piston engine, and a main exhaust line configured to collect exhaust gases from the engine and direct the exhaust gases toward an atmosphere outside the engine arrangement;a waste heat recovery system carrying a working fluid in a loop, in which the working fluid is successively compressed, heated in a heat exchanger located in the main exhaust line by means of thermal energy of the exhaust gases, and expanded in a first expander;a first compressor located in the main exhaust line and mechanically connected to the first expander of the waste heat recovery system,an exhaust after treatment system located in the main exhaust line and including several units, at least one unit being located upstream from the heat exchanger,wherein the main exhaust line passes through the heat exchanger, and wherein the first compressor is disposed between the heat exchanger and an outlet of the main exhaust line leading to the atmosphere.
