There's a popular theory that states that parts of Xiongnu who fled from the Chinese and migrated west mixed with Ugro-Finnic tribes in the Ural-Volga region and, therefore, a new confederation of European Huns was born.

Keyser-Tracqui et al., GENETIC ANALYSIS OF A XIONGNU POPULATION

http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/AJHG/journal/issues/v73n2/35013/35013.web.pdf

A majority (89%) of the Xiongnu sequences can be classified as belonging to an ASIAN haplogroup (A, B4b, C, D4, D5 or D5a, or F1b), and nearly 11% belong to European haplogroups (U2, U5a1a, and J1). This finding indicates that the contacts between European and Asian populations were anterior to the Xiongnu culture
