We’re talking about a 30+ goal scorer who doesn’t even see PP1 time or any minutes on the top line.
I think it’s fair to assume that he’d easily hit 40 this season if he had a chance on PP1 and I suspect at some point in his career, he will get a chance there as he has all the tools. If it was me, I’m pretty much trading what’s necessary to keep the core intact and Mangiapane is part of my core. If Kylington needs to be squeezed for one season to create space, then so be it.

Magiapane is the not the driver of the offence, he is the finisher.
No one dislikes him, but many feel that this may well be his career year, and don't want to pay in the future for that.
A core piece likely has to go. Who do you think it should be, if not Mangiapane?
