@santiagodraco - in single book metadata edit download, you should see a grid of available covers from sources you've configured in size order, select the one you want and press enter. In multi-book metadata download you don't get to choose. It could be that the sources you're using don't supply covers, or the metadata download plugin doesn't retrieve them.

You can also download covers only in single metadata edit. Many users prefer prefer to 'fix-up' the textual metadata and covers as discrete operations, and I recall seeing mention of using the Search The Internet plugin to find HQ covers.
