"That's why we come here with a lot of ambition."
Glasner was in charge of Palace for 28 months and led the side to a historic FA Cup and Conference League victory, as well as winning the Community Shield.
Sage has joined the Eagles after winning the French Cup with Lens and finishing second in Ligue 1, six points behind champions Paris St-Germain.
"We won last year and we want to continue in this way, in a new club, a new project, but with a lot of winning habits," added Sage.
"We want to give our best every day for the team, for the club, for the people, and especially for the fans, because when you love a club in England, it's for all your life.
"We want to make the fans smile, to be proud of the team, and to be proud of the club - so we will give our best for you, and we are together."
Palace are yet to announce Sage's coaching staff for the 2026-27 campaign.
Chairman Steve Parish said: "I am tremendously excited to welcome Pierre.
"As we move into another European campaign off the back of our success in Leipzig, I know he will give everything to target more success for our fantastic football club."
