On 27 June 2016, Argentine first division side Godoy Cruz de Mendoza signed Sigales to a three-year contract. He became the second Uruguayan player in the team joining compatriot Santiago "Morro" García. Sigales scored the only goal as Godoy Cruz defeated Huracán in the first match of the 2016–17 Argentine Primera División season.{{cite news|newspaper=La Nación|title=Godoy Cruz aguantó y se llevó su premio: derrotó 1 a 0 a Huracán en Mendoza|trans-title=Godoy Cruz endured and took the prize: defeated Huracán 1–0 in Mendoza|url=http://www.lanacion.com.ar/1931249-godoy-cruz-huracan|language=Spanish|date=26 August 2016}} However, after Godoy Cruz suffered a 0–1 home defeat in the 2017 Copa Libertadores round of 16, the club fired manager Lucas Bernardi. In the aftermath Sigales was one of several players to leave the club, joining Uruguayan side Boston River on a one-year loan.{{cite web|publisher=El Sol|title=Godoy Cruz: el último que apague la luz|trans-title=Godoy Cruz: the last to turn off the light|url=https://www.elsol.com.ar/nota/308059/deportes/godoy-cruz-el-ultimo-que-apague-la-luz.html|language=Spanish|date=7 July 2017}}{{cite web|publisher=Tenfield|title=Boston: Maxi Sigales, segunda alta|trans-title=Boston: Maxi Sigales, second arrival|url=http://www.tenfield.com.uy/boston-maxi-sigales-segunda-alta/|language=Spanish|date=20 July 2017}}
