Immediately following his release, it was announced that Siegfried had joined Detroit City for their first full season in the National Independent Soccer Association.[9] He went on to help the club win the NISA Fall Championship.[10]

Louisville City

On March 17, 2021, Siegfried signed with USL Championship side Louisville City FC following a success trial with the club.[11]

On April 15, 2021, Major League Soccer side Sporting Kansas City brought in Siegfried on a season-long loan following an injury crisis among their goalkeepers.
